HASH Values And Uploads?

[LowOrbit]

After watching a shit load of rips from genuine uploaders. My question is:

Should uploaders HASH their uploads to "tie" themselves to the upload.

Yes or No?

Thanks in advance,

Brilliant idea skippy, we could call your new invention something catchy like..."info hash" or "torrent hash" or something like that. Your mom was so right, you really are special.

No.

You really need to find a new obsession.

It doesn't even make sense when a torrent can have many files.

I'm sure you think it works great in theory, but what you propose would only add excess work and needless confusion.

Adding a checksum doesn't make the original source more trustworthy, and a checksum failure doesn't necessarily mean what you downloaded is bad.

But you go ahead and do it with your uploads. Let's see if it catches on.
