” I can’t stand getting stuff for free and want to pay for my content at whatever rate and conditions set by my Rights Holders. ”

” This is the beginning of the end for The Pirate Bay ”

This has been said about as many times as ..” the world is going to end next week ”
It’s just a true too

AllofMp3 is still around .. just under a different name .. nice.

” I can’t stand getting stuff for free and want to pay for my content ”

That’s very kind of you.
Next Brittany Spears cd you want to buy , instead, download it from Pirate Bay, and send a check for 15.00
directly to brittany. That way, she’ll get to keep ALL of the money ( instead of about 15 cents of it ).
It worked out really well for NiN and Radiohead. Content CREATORS got paid, middlemen got shit.
That’s how it should be.

Excuse me now while I remove the hook from my mouth.

^LMFAO^

you should want to pay the content creators, the rights holders are cocksucking lilliputian dictators that need to be shot.

The Pirate Bay isn’t going anywhere btw, in case you missed the last 2/3s of the article, the blocks can be gotten around.

This is the beginning of the end for The Pirate Bay, I’m glad to say.

I can’t stand getting stuff for free and want to pay for my content at whatever rate and conditions set by my Rights Holders.

One answer to this is right here on this site – the red text above that starts with
“Net access blocked by government restrictions?”

Blocking a website is an exercise in futility. This is one of many means to get
around such blocking.

The score – Pirate Bay: 1 Italian Government: 0
