They claim that over $500 million in revenue was lost due to piracy... Sorry, but that's bullshit. Most people who pirate wouldn't have bought the product in the first place. These made-up numbers are pissing me off.

One of the things is that Megaupload was warned couneless times according to what I have been reading. And the people who run the site were ignoring it and eating up the money people were forking up to get better service.

Like it or not. Megaupload was the Kazaa of the 2001 days. And like it or not, it was unintelligent to bother going with that site when people can use things like *Blocked by SOPA*

Sucks. I stream so much off Megavideo.

Guess I'm relying on Taiwanese uploads.

yeah Bitmap you brought up some awesome nostalgia. Thanks.

Can't wait for demonoid and kickass torrents to get shut down.

Yay for netflix... the really REALLY retarded alternative.

It wasn't just a matter of piracy. Money laundering and racketeering are not exactly low-level charges.
