The MPAA may have won the battle against TorrentSpy, but they
are losing the war. There are dozens of other torrent sites to
take their place, and indeed some new ones have started up in
the past few weeks.
So all the anti-p2p trolls, corporate shills and MAFIAA
apologists on the Net can crow and trumpet all they want, claiming
that another major "piracy" site has been taken down. In
reality, it was just one site, indexing torrents available
elsewhere. And in many p2p users' opinions not a very good
one, doing things like foisting pr0n ads upon site visitors.

I don't see you devoting your time and money to a bunch of ingrates. Oh, also, Ron Paul and I were hanging out the other day and he said he is ashamed that you support him, really, he was being serious too. |

FWIW, pirate bay is what I use, but they also force pr0n ads on you, but then hey, what's the internet for, if not pr0n. |

You are right in saying copyright infringment commiters are not the good guys, but the mpaa is worse. They are trying to "own" the Internet and everything that goes on in its vast amounts of data. Whether or not you support illegal downloads you should support net nutrality to the fullest. How would you like to use an Internet where few corporations run it? Its like gas. A few big guys run the show, gouge the prices, and the end user suffers. |

the MPAA/RIAA are much much much worse then the pirates. they are anti competitive and anti consumer on all levels and they get away with it in ways that make the phone company drool.

said by INT0CABLE :we are the good guys You know, I said absolutely nothing about good vs. bad in
my post. But Quatrix (whom I have on ignore, BTW), is putting
words in my mouth, assuming I said that. Seems all he did was
post a knee-jerk reaction to my comments.
But the MPAA, IFPI, RIAA and all the rest are indeed losing
the war. Piracy/infringement/filesharing/bootlegging cannot
be stopped.
It is like the wars on drugs, poverty and terror. Yes there
may be a few high profile victories here and there, but it
will never be completely eradicated.

It's legal to download.
If you upload and share, you will get caught by the MPAA. |
