    It's a sad day for file sharers. :( I expect them to be back with a new ISP, just pissing more people off in high places. :)

    Lol, Pirate Bay has gone down countless amounts of times. They always bounce right back, my guess is that it'll be back within a day or two! :)

    To be honest I don't even use bittorrent that much any more; I mostly only download anime and doujinshii, which is acchieved a lot easier on the Japanese Filesharing network known as "Share!".

    Still, I liked some of the shit they did.

    Oh how i love the guys who own that site. They have personalities and really have a fun time with people hating them. I hope they get back online soon enough.

    Yeah, on their blog they said they had handed PirateBay to some other people, so hopefully it'll be back up soon.

    Man. They were awesome. I hate the fucking laws saying you can't share files that you bought, thus making it YOUR property.

    Maybe you people will actually have (shock horror) BUY MUSIC/MOVIES/SOFTWARE INSTEAD OF STEALING IT.

    It's not a sad day for 'file sharers'. It's a sad day for criminals.

    If you're not selling your music to people, then why should it be illegal? It's confusing. Why shut down piratebay when they could shut down something like limewire. Limewire everybody knows of, even the authorities, and it's been around forever. Why not shut that down?

    Because 'Limewire' isn't something that can be shut down. It's a peer-to-peer network (the Gnutella network).

    The Pirate Bay is a website openly condoning and assisting piracy. Something entirely different.

    And how many people download things legally from torrent sites? Sure, some. Not many. Not many at all.
