MPAA goes against BT and eD

[Ryuken]

wel, i download mostly anime so it doesn't matter

[Robert]

I only want games, I don't care about music and movies

[Sybarite Paladin AxL]

I am mso pissed off right now, plz anyone think any possible way to stop this dead in it's tracks, this is terrible, horrible, it's outrageous, any solutions?

[Weirdy]

if I was a isp owner I'd be pissed

 

p2p in a way made having a fast connection sort of hip, so ppl made subscriptions to download musik and movies faster cause well...it was free

 

now that's it kinda being taken away or having to be paid for, it looks as if high speed internet will merely go back to being capital

You just wait. Good things come to those who wait. Besides, it's not like the police will come knocking on your door, since

 

1) You live in Europe as far as I know (US laws can kiss my hair armpits and other places)

2) If I understood correctly, you are not one of those people who dangle in the Top 10 sharers list on some BT site.

3) Right now, the worst thing at least our NBI could do if is make the user pay a fine. Sure, government officials have shut down some sites, but that's basically the gist of it.

dude, thing is most BT sites are based in USA, am I right, I am not worried about my ass I am worried about the sites being closed down, cuz I won't have where to get crap no more, I couldn't give a rat's ass what happens to me cuz my parents are lawyers and my dad knowns the current president, so fuk that I need sources I don't want to see these sites going down, as I understand Youceff is down already...

[Agozer]

Youceff's been gone for quite a while now and BT activity does not stop just because the major sites closed their doors.
