Since I started using Spotify I've not downloaded no music, that was about 2 years ago.
So you've downloaded music?

It's not a hard concept. It's very simple. Also aren't there already such sites for unsigned bands.
Its not the reason at all. Anyone with a bit of money can build such a site and there's nothing the music industry could do.
Why do it for that reasons? It's well known they want such sites shut down anyway and they seem to have the evidence needed.

Makes sense now the big music mafia was facing a massive drop in legal revenue.
It is damned hard to believe that Mr Schitz is really some Robin Hood character, determined selflessly to save us all from the wickedness of the film & music industry. He is alleged to have earned over $40 million from his internet activities in 2010.Wikipedia said:Kim Dotcom (born Kim Schmitz January 21, 1974), also known as Kimble and Kim Tim Jim Vestor, is a German-Finnish[6] computer programmer and businessman who generated much publicity during the dot-com bubble and was convicted of insider trading, and embezzlement in its aftermath.
He is also known as the founder of Megaupload and associated sites. On January 20, 2012, he was placed in the custody of the New Zealand police under charges of criminal copyright infringement related to the Megaupload site.
I was talking specifically about Mega Upload.
Maybe the "revolution" will be that the newbies of the Internet finally discover BitTorrent and Usenet. Rather than pay out for premium accounts on these silly 1990's-throwback virus-infested file hosting sites.
Whilst we're on the subject of Copyright does Spie have permission to use Godfather imagery on this forum?
This is a very good point, that will not only crush this thread, it might mean a consolidated law suit from Scorsese and Coppola. Say goodbye to all mods, admins and underboss. Even the Roman Empire fell. From the ruins greatness will rise.
Well the way things are going we'll all log in one morning and there'll be a big FBI notice, Spie will get extradited and OCUK will go under.

Or he'll receive a cease and desist letter and remove them. Exactly what should happen if the images aren't licensed.
As for Megaupload I don't really understand anyone who defends them. Unless they are a pirate....
lol, a completely legitimate business model what removed content where DMCA was invoked, and complained against, decimated overnight, without any long term thought on how it could effect the US economy, what makes me laugh, all this attention on webistes tha allow you to upload files, but complete ignoreing of Torrents and Usenet, Shows you that they can not shut down exactly what they want.

Do you really believe Megaupload was a completely legitimate business?
Do you think if infringed material keeps going up and down this is acceptable?
The torrent sites will be pursued. And rightly so.
They never complied with DMCA whatsoever. Each file had thousands of links to it and MU would only remove the particular link that was reported, leaving the file and all the other links active. If specified they are required by law to remove them all, they never.lol, a completely legitimate business model what removed content where DMCA was invoked, and complained against, decimated overnight, without any long term thought on how it could effect the US economy, what makes me laugh, all this attention on webistes tha allow you to upload files, but complete ignoreing of Torrents and Usenet, Shows you that they can not shut down exactly what they want.

It wont help much but piracy is still wrong. If you want to watch stuff pay for it.
Although it isn't easy when there arn't any dcent legal sites to buy from.
