Megaupload Goes Down

Megaupload has been shut down.

I am not sure this is the right place to post this, but it's music related.

Mediafire next?

That was a blow.

"Copyright control"...

How else could I have found a way to watch John Sayles' Brother, Robert Downey Sr's work...
These were not allowed a release in your supermarket...

Grrrr
Filesonic still active, but not on my favourite site - they'll find a way I guess.
Dimeadozen popped up soon after the demise of EasyTree.

It does raise some questions:

- Who needs SOPA & PIPA when current laws already gave the FBI the means to take down a site whose servers are located in New Zealand?

- Does this mean everybody in the world is supposed to obey US copyright laws or risk getting arrested in their own country? It's not like they have a shortage of prisoners in the US...

- And finally, with the demise of megaupload, how's poor Will.I.Am going to send his files across the globe? UPS!!?
