BitTorrent Hubs Shutting Down

Major BitTorrent hubs such as SuprNova have gone offline in the wake of the MPAA legal action against such sites. Whereas most of the conventional P2P software is now decentralised, BitTorrent relies on tracker hub servers to facilitated the parallel transfers of all the pieces of the large files being distributed. That makes the architecture such that these hubs are relatively easy to find, so if they are facilitating copyright infringement they could be sued by the offended party eg the movie industry.
