There are a few things that work against you, especially if you are going to use DRM or misleading filenames.

1. Some p2p networks use rating systems where users can just inform others that it is just an ad or uses DRM.

2. Sources shown in searches are often listed in order of popularity with the most commonly shared files first. This means that it can take time to get a lot of hits.

3. Depending on how you do things, it can be obvious you are just foing ads. as an example when doing a search if a user sees your IP or a group of five ips sharing files that all seem the same exact filesize, they are going to be suspicious.
