If I actually paid for all the music I listened to... I'd be in a lot of debt.

I'll admit I mostly pirate music/movies.

There's a reason my music selection is so narrow.

Also, another example of what I was talking about; say you're a shop owner and suddenly your locks start to malfunction and anyone can break into your shop with no trouble without setting off any of the alarms. What are you going to do, sit there and whine because you keep getting robbed or try to adapt to it so your business doesn't fail? Sure it may not be totally ethically right for people to be doing this, but there's nothing you can do to stop it, so you can either sit there and refuse to change as you watch your business fail or you can learn how to change your business to deal with it.

11 pages in one day? sheesh!

What I want to know is how ThePirateBay is still alive, but MegaUpload was shut down... How is ThePirateBay not raped by the government and lawsuits yet?

It's in a country where the US can't stick it's nose in. That's how.

What country exactly? I'm curious.

Last I heard it was in N. Korea, but they moved.

I'm pretty sure it's hosted in Sweden but I could be wrong. It's somewhere in Scandenavia. I'm forgetting exactly what but they also have some sort of back up for if it ever gets taken down.
