I agree with the concern about leeching TOR bandwidth for inefficient services, like video streaming or downloads etc. In the end it will only degrade TOR for everyone. Thanks!

Please, understand that the Tor network is run by volunteers and is already slow. Using it for video streaming puts a heavy strain on the few existing exit nodes, thereby deteriorating speeds for users who, for example, would like to access Wikipedia or other site banned in their country.

Tor won't start after making the adjustments above. tor.pa goes to "www.pandora.com" so thats useless. Anyone have a proxy in an a rated place? The same problem.
