Gary! · 10-23-2007, 07:54 AM

I'm surprised this didn't happen earlier really.

fred198524 · 10-23-2007, 07:55 AM

Oh this is not good.

And the hours trying to keep my ratio respectable. What a waste.

pkrfan97 · 10-23-2007, 08:20 AM

So much for free leech christmas... I was planning on getting all FLAC versions of my music library

**Arby** · 10-23-2007, 08:29 AM

crap

Hilly · 10-23-2007, 08:41 AM

I wonder if there will be some crack down on users next.

FireDancer67 · 10-23-2007, 08:41 AM

^^That was my first thought...

BotheDMBFan · 10-23-2007, 08:44 AM

Doesn't this just suck a lot of ass.

Hurting_Donkey · 10-23-2007, 08:46 AM

Oh no, now people will have to actually buy music instead of stealing it.

Eh, I usually bought an album if I liked it after I downloaded it...but yeah.

Same here.

I wonder if users are protected by the agreement they 'signed'

pkrfan97 · 10-23-2007, 08:55 AM

I usually only bought the CDs in addition to downloading if it's a band I really enjoy (such as DMB). However, it was nice to be able to get WH8 CDs since I haven't been in the warehouse for three years yet... :-\

What are some other good music trackers out there (preferably ones that host lossless files as well as just MP3)?

TheGoodGoodTime · 10-23-2007, 09:08 AM

It's gone.

TempHelpNeeded · 10-23-2007, 09:09 AM

Probably...but who knows?

**2steppinKJ** · 10-23-2007, 09:16 AM

Ah, well...it was just a matter of when, I guess.

ChetUbetcha · 10-23-2007, 09:17 AM

Oh yes. Makes my day. Bad people

pkrfan97 · 10-23-2007, 09:21 AM

"Members paid 'donations' via debit or credit cards, ensuring their continued access to the site."

Users were only invited to join the site if they could prove that they had music to offer, according to an IFPI spokesman.

Completely NOT true... Paying was never a requirement, nor was having things to share prior to joining.

dmbphan041 · 10-23-2007, 09:35 AM

so...I should delete the stuff I've gotten off oink I guess.

eep.

Too late, the damage is already done.

pkrfan97 · 10-23-2007, 09:40 AM

Why would you do such a thing? If you're afraid of the cops coming to your house looking for music, just back it up & give it to a co-worker or something for safe keeping for a while. You might have a problem if they're not on an external, however, but that's why all mine is...lol

I think OiNK will be back up eventually; Piratebay came back up, why not OiNK?

You knew that when you signed up though.

BDJCL3 · 10-23-2007, 10:11 AM

What are the chances of them tracking down users?

It says they're going to on the site when you access it now

noobpwnr · 10-23-2007, 10:12 AM

just to be safe do you think i should delete all the torrents in my bt client?

i did it anyways.... /cry

Worst they'll do is give you a stupid fine.

ChetUbetcha · 10-23-2007, 10:13 AM

A criminal investigation continues into the identities and activities of the site's
users.

SUCKS TO BE YOU GUYS
