what torrent sites do - they distribute it to people they have no means to verify purchase of license from of legit content in order to provide backup and access to it. - isn't simple concept?

before you can backup or access it = you have to have a license in the first place.

open your torrent tracker, build in mechanisms of license validation, then no one will say a word that you freely distribute it to masses and backup all you want with others legit license holders for that particular piece of intellectual property that you purchased in the first place. no one will stop you then and take your vcr rights away.

if you want to have this redundant backup - do it legitimately. freely (including some private trackers) accesible torrents is not the way as they are hubs for piracy
