The groups themselves create a ruleset for each Scene category (for example, MP3 or TV) that then becomes the active rules for encoding material. The Scene has no central leadership, location, or other organizational conventions. However, as files were commonly leaked outside the community and their popularity grew, some individuals from The Scene began leaking files and uploading them to filehosts, torrents and ed2k.
The Scene is meant to be hidden from the public, only being shared with those within the community. The Scene distributes all forms of digital media, including computer games, movies, TV shows, music, and pornography. The Warez scene, often referred to as The Scene, is a worldwide, underground, organized network of pirate groups specializing in obtaining and illegally releasing digital media for free before their official sale date.
