you're pulling copyrighted material from a public file sharing site and you're surprised it is shut down? give your head a shake, be thankful it lasted this long!

They could in theory find a file sharing service out of jurisdiction and put out a call to users to repopulate but the chances of it ever being the kind of resource it was! Who knows. |

Yeah, that's what I hope will happen. There was a great Opinion Piece I read somewhere, and I think it applies. Let me see if I can find it. Found it! http://static.thepiratebay.org/legal/sopa.txt

Any one have information
Fed's shut Down Mega upload Feds shut down file-sharing site one day after Web protest By Brendan Sasso - 01/19/12 03:32 PM ET The Justice Department seized Megaupload.com, one of the world's most popular file-sharing sites, and several of its related sites on Thursday. Prosecutors charged seven employees of Megaupload with criminal copyright infringement, conspiracy to commit racketeering and other charges. Each faces up to 55 years in prison. Megaupload, which operates sites such as Megavideo.com and Megapix.com, claimed to receive 50 million daily visitors, accounting for 4 percent of total Internet traffic. According to court documents, Megavideo.com was the world's 52nd most frequently visited website. The crackdown comes just one day after a massive Web protest against legislation to expand the power of law enforcement and copyright holders to go after infringing websites. Prosecutors accuse Megaupload's owners of generating more than $175 million in criminal proceeds and more than half a billion dollars in harm to copyright owners.

Gutted about this, only just started using my Apple TV 2 with Icefilms and only the day before last did I purchase a MU premium account in the NY sale! It was only 19e and the pain comes more from losing the site than the money but still shite all the same.
Nothing else seems to come remotely close to icefilms, guess my ATV2 is now pretty useless to me unless I start subscribing to iTunes which I am against anyway! |

There goes 4% of the traffic on the Internet!
I am sure a few Icefilms users are a little upset at the moment. Fortunately (?) for me I was unable to use it anyway. HOW-TO post about a XBMC for iOS problem (AKA YOU MUST POST XBMC.LOG SO WE CAN HELP) I bet you can't read the FAQ |
