I agree. That's why I pay for my music.

EDIT: UPDATE- Apparently a user named 'adamlazz' ratted out who the site admin is to the police for a MASSIVE sum of money (we're talking more than six figures).

I'm confused as to why they would pay somebody money, if they knew the site existed, why couldn't they just pretend to be a user and register, or just shut it down? Surely they have specialized people that track down those sites...
Anyway, it sucks, I hope MC doesn't go...

Btw, the "adamlazz" rumor was started in the digg comments so eh only time will tell if thats true or not.

I'd never even heard of the site, but: 'adamlazz'! Adam Lazzara?! Oh, that would suck!

I must be in the minority of those that aren't surprised. It was only a matter of time. They are getting even more serious, but some people just don't seem to care & then bam.

And I don't think hiding MC will do anything.

OiNK's admin has been released so OiNK will probably be back up soon.

I think the first rule for MC starting today is DO NOT TALK ABOUT MC.

THATS WHAT I SAID! I said MC needs to be like Fight Club.

I'm mostly upset because I had never fucking heard of Oink before this!

Yeah OiNK was on a completely other level, I didn't want to scare Yvonne but essentially, it is her responsibility.

A C/D is only issued so many times before something serious DOES happen. That's all I was saying. They won't keep issuing C/D over and over if it keeps happening.

Aw, don't scare Yvonne! it really doesn't work that way, I've been a part of many, many music sharing forums that have been shut down and no one is arrested. A Cease and Desist letter is issued and the site goes down the...

Use newsgroups instead of bit torrent sites. As far as MC goes, it really isn't that big, right now they are focus are bringing down these big powerful sites because it gets more media to scare people so they don't download. I could see MC being in trouble, however I don't think it would be anytime soon.
