From lifehacker: The recently convicted site runners claim on their blog that users will leave the site in droves if the "new owners screw around with the site"—a fairly good guess, we'd think—but owners-to-be GGF state their intention to "introduce models which entail that content providers and copyright owners get paid" for downloads.
I don't torrent much at all, but I always like TPB. |

fudge the RIAA. fudge the MPAA. Pirate Bay. They have nothing to do with this.. I'm well fudgeing aware of that. They started shizzle in the first place and I bet if they didn't none of this would be happening. Actually if TPB would of respected copyright laws in the first place none of this would of happened. Seldom did copyright holders request removal of content and every time they were mocked. Even if they removed it but let it be reuploaded. None of this would of happened. So don't blame somebody else for this. Everyone has a right to protect their IP's. Write a song or a program and you'll know why this is important. |

ARTIST MAKE ENOUGH MONEY AS IT IS Artists don't make enough money as they should when it comes to people buying their music. Record companies take a lot from them and most of them hate it. This is why bands like Radiohead and NIN are putting them up for download and letting fans "pay what they want." |

am i unaware of something? is the pirate bay the lifeforce of torrenting? iv allways liked bt junkie and mininova allot more than the pirate bay, there are still up I just like the number of comments that TPB torrents get. I've never really seen a torrent on BtJunkie or MiniNova with that many comments, which then makes me suspicious on the possibility of a torrent being a hoax, filled with trojans, or difficult to install. |

Well, I am not surprised at all. This happens, and will continue to happen. More or so, copyright holders are attacking torrent sites, same with governments. They haven't done a raid on a warez operation in a while. 3 years to be exact, when torrent-site raids are more common nowadays.
