My theory is that either its from people deleting associated files like .srt and .txt or companies intentionally sabotaging torrents so that it looks like they're being seeded still but not fully.

In any case, the times this has happened to me I'll try to play the file and most times it works still.

Stupid protocol can't send the big file if the small file next to it is missing. Gotta have the whole block.
