Default answer to mpg problems on MACS

Here is the answer. Most porn/movies/ whatever kind of video files/etc are still distributed through the internet via usenet/newsgroups/nntp( im sure many of you new kiddies dont know about). Before you guys get your movies/porn/etc through limewire, it always comes through usenet first. In order to post movies/binaries/etc on usenet, you must break your movie into pieces and send them as seperate files. the program/standard usually used to seperate them is called rar and is usually always disassembled/reassembled on windows. Then people download all the pieces and reassemble the rar files to make a whole movie file again. The problem is when the rar program reassembles the pieces again, it doesnt put it back to its 100% original form . Some of the header content from the rar program gets left behind inside of the movie file. For some reason, this causes the mac's implementation of the mpg reader to get messed up. I'm not sure who to blame, it could be mac for not implementing mpg good, it could be rar for not being "clean" enough during reassembly, or it could be windows for allowing a messed up implementation work in their media player. this problem SHOULD go away as people start to use more programs like limeiwre which dont require files to be disassembled and reassembled.
btw, new video/programs/content ALWAYS comes out on usenet first. if you guys camnt happen to find what you are looking for on limewire, you can try usenet, but be wrened, it is a 100 times harder to use than limewire. Usenet comes from the very veyr beginning of the internet. HAPPY SEARCHING!!!!

I know that most files went tru Usenet at some point .
I also know of those big hidden FTP servers with more then 1000 gig .

I used to be one of those porn swappers on IRC .
I even had my own leech server . I was 14 at the time ...

I know how un-userfrendly Usenet was .
Finding those big FTP servers was also difficult .
So I deciced to let people come to me instead of me looking everywhere .
So I launched my own FTP and IRC leech server .

I was swapping more then illegal programs .
I have about 280 GB of porn sepparated over several HD's .
You name it , I've seen it .
