Should be titled "The whole Pirate Bay magnet archive except this torrent" :-)
I think a magnet link is based on the hash of the contents too, so it might be an interesting problem to include the torrent's own magnet link in itself.

- pyre 15y agoThe BT Infohash is mostly a hash of the hashes of the blocks + file names + a couple of other things. Notably the list of trackers is not part of the infohash, so adding trackers to a torrent file does not affect the hash. If you're really interested, install the Python module bencode, and use it to de-serialize a .torrent file.
- allisfine 15y agoThe thing is, new torrents are uploaded to Pirate Bay all the time, so one can only archive TPB in any given moment - which has to be, of course, before the creation of this torrent. The archive is static, the TPB database is dynamic :)
