READ ON..
Tamil rockers have become an brand more than an website providing pirated content online. One can find an high budgeted Hollywood film like Avenger to local TV channel shows like BIG BOSS on their platform.Though Government has made many steps to blow out them by arresting five people who had connection with the website on 15 March 2013, their services are uninterpreted till date. Now lets see how much do they earn and as an audience our contribution to it.

HISTORY OF TAMIL ROCKERS

Tamil Rockers existence was felt a quite a decade and its exact sprout is unclear.Remember those days we would stand in queue to purchase ticket instead searching the latest Tamil rockers domain.How does they get their hands on pirated contents.

METHOD 1 - FETCHING PRE-RELEASE

Most of the films are pre screened several times to receive  the mixed response of controlled audience and is mostly done in production house with seating capacity of 20-50 members. It is also done to find any loopholes in editing and scene sequences. Tamil rockers team some how gets their hands discretely with the screening team and steal the clip.These clips usually don't have an CBFC certificate and has an watermark embedded in them.

METHOD 2 - USE OF DIFFERENT TIME ZONE

To maximize earning , a film must be released world wide. A simple case considering an theater with 100 seats, 100 filled in Tamil nadu and just say 40 filled in US.Ticket price in TN is 120 rupees whereas in US it is 12$(Approx). So collection would be 12 K  in TN whereas in US 36 K. So Tamil rockers team with international tie up record these shows and release these copies in torrents making use of different tie zones.

METHOD 3 - RE RECORDING THE FILM

When you come across the pirated content which is illegal you would find the nuisance of people walking across, cross talks and loud appraisals for their favorite stars . These are nothing but the recorded version of film from theaters.Usually on first day shows several people record the movie illegally and share the content and one with best quality is paid in thousands.

HOW THEY EARN?

We knew nothing about the owner ,their origin what we all new is that how exactly they make money from their website.Google AdSense never works on pirated contents and  have  strict policies but their are other website through which they earn. Interestingly the arrest was made with backtracking one of the add company which showed interest in showing adds in their platform (Funny isn't it).

1. FORCED CLICK LINKS

When you try to download any contents from their pirated website which is illegal in any way, you would be redirected to another tab showing completely irrelevant add which we would usually close even before it loads. This is Cost per click which Tamil rockers is forcefully making us to do to pay their bills and earn.

2. ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES

As I discussed earlier blackmailing and distribution is also an main source of income . They threaten the production team for ransom usually in lakhs, so the producer don't mind paying them on fear of clips being released online.

3. OTHER SOURCES

Some steaming platforms and torrent sharing  platforms also pay them for the number  of users who download pirated content from their websites.

ESTIMATED EARNINGS

This is were the fun part begins.Their estimated earning can be found from the number of visitors or the number of impression the website gets.Their are number of website which reveals the earnings of an website when you enter the URL of an website but all of these are bogus, due to strict cyber security Tamil rockers constantly changes its domain and it is impossible to track their earnings . 

If you find someone claiming to reveal the Tamil rockers earning believe me by not believing them.But we know something that this business is very successfully which enables them to keep them on track even after some much of troubles caused by production unit's.Even the Tamil rockers will have no idea of their earning who are we to judge them.

AYE OF TAMIL ROCKERS

• It has made theater owners to reconsider cost of shows to encourage audience to watch shows on theater.

NAY OF TAMIL ROCKERS

• It is an pirated website,
• Contents here are hard work of others and this website leeches money out of it.

PERSPECTIVES

Tamil Rockers is an eligible candidate  for Illuminati position as it fulfills all the requirement of being one. We have no idea of their origin ,who is funding them ,the government cannot blow them ,they have international tie ups ,in spite of every efforts to shut them down and yet running successfully.Remember every time you download a movie from their website you are an into an criminal offence.
