    WARNING! STOP using TorrentSpy NOW!!!

    Apparenly, as of today, the MPAA has ordered TorrentSpy to record the details of all of it's users and hand over reports (daily? weekly?) so they can see what people have been downloading. Not cool. I'm never touching that site again...

    ...not that I ever did...

    They tried to shut down the Swedish site Pirate Bay too. Infact, they "raided" their HQs. Two days later, the Pirate Bay servers were up again - in Holland.

    **** you MPAA. Torrentspy, heed my advice, move your servers out of the US.

    Such posts will be immediately removed and the user warned. A thread may be closed if it is clear that information concerning illegal activities is intended to be shared, based on the nature of the thread itself.
    Now so far this topic has not infringed this rule so i will keep it open as a news item ONLY, it is however borderline.. this is a licensed forums and we cannot allow any links or discussions on the subject of any torrent or P2P sharing sites, in short any post that reveals a link to a site, enough infomation to find a site or mentions any sites which are still running and operational which can be found will be deleted, action will be taken against the member who posted it and the this topic will be closed.

    kapeesh?

    Sadly, no privacy is the price we pay for the high tech way of life we've become so accustomed to living.

    I don't know about you but i have over 3,00 songs that if I would have paid a dollar each for, i'd be piss poor. I probably wouldn't even download music. Anyhow, it sure beats 10 years a go when you had to buy cd's a sam goody's. ( remember that)? How prehistoric.

    Fist off, Andy, I didn't think it was TOO close to being an illegal topic. Sorry if it was.

    Second off, Terran, I heard it on G4TV about 1 minute before I posted it.

    Thirdly, everybody, you should pay for all of your music, movies, video games, programs, books, audio books, television shows, etc.

    i love it when people say that we should pay for that stuff. It's like if you don't you'll get sued. A critic last week had the balls to review hostell 2 and admit that it was a bootleg version he saw. He of course said it was wrong to do stuff like that but didn't apologize for doing it. everybody does it, and you should be ashamed guys.
