As much as I love TPB, you surely can't be serious with that statement.

Yeah lol, I guess gotta agree with you :-) Anyway, so anyone knows more about the Blackout Europe | Home matter ?

It's because they were "encouraging copyright theft" I believe. So like the geek version of inciting a riot or something 8-) They were up against more serious charges (something like actually distributing copyrighted material) but they were dropped because it's really only a search engine.

Yeah I read all the articles and stuff but couldn't remember at all what was the final reasoning for the verdict.

I wonder how they encouraged copyright theft :|

If you think that's silly, what about the 3million fine they were given on top of the jail sentence?

The fine is stupid and I think they only got fined because they assumed that they made profit by running their page? Although I don't think they did.

Anyway best luck to 'em. All we can do right now, is download even more

Also people, what about this ? Blackout Europe | Home I've read it all but it's still a bit confusing. And since the voting will take place quite soon it's odd how it hasn't got any proper media attention?

its all good anyway, they dont store any of the files on any of their servers they are only a search engine, so they cant really be shut down. Good times ahead.

That's right, still 1 year behind bars is silly. What was their actual reasoning for the verdict? Because as ya said TPB acts as a search engine so technically they're not violating any rules...

they dont seem bothered really, more just annoyed. TPB wont be closing down anytime soon.

Their servers aren't located in Sweden - or at least majority aren't - so shouldn't be affected at all :|

Darn, a year in jail for nothing. And appeal might take even longer than their sentence so that's not much of use.

Oh yeah baby

What a beauty :o If only I had some money and didn't live in a bin.

Yeeahh!!! I'm definitelly showing off my talent!

It sounds the same but it rocks!

I am indeed One of the first bands that got me into music when I was 9 years old along with Kiss and Judas Priest

rock on:up::up:

Wtf are you on about? I was speaking about iron maiden and quoting another person.

No, just completely uninspired, uninterested and underwhelmed.

So I take it as you haven't listened to all their albums to comment on their style changes? or lack of that.

Iron Maiden, for 25 years.

Wait wait, I know! You must be deaf, right?

Epic fail

Well I guess I don't like it , tried listening to some music when I was given it by others. Some of the instrumental work was alright.. but so called singers ruined everything in every single case.

I'm more of 70-80s person, rainbow, deep purple, saxon, dio, judas priest etc... Don't mind some thrash as long as there's a reasonably good singer.

I could reply "would your mum suffice" but that would be too obvious. I too am curious about female vox, I listen to enough Killwhitneydead to hate the species enough as it is but quite bluntly a dog would sound piss. Poor idea dude.

Heh, it wasn't directed to women singers, more likely a crappy comment about "hardcore/metalcore/screamo" kind of stuff.

Doro Pesch is quite a good singer..

Anyway enough of me showing off my talent.

Just get a dog to bark into the mic would achieve same thing.

Black leather is the way to go, it will always match

Meh..... complete failure, lost by 12 points >_<

arrggghhh

Speaking of basketball. I see Team USA have finally decided playing the game like a team, instead a group of individual stars is a good idea. And it has been excellent to watch. Exciting on the fast break and a loooot of dunks.

Indeed it was one of their main problems in the past, court full of awesome players that played separately.

Hopefully LTU will manage to pick up bronze, but can't say for sure, there's big chance that Argentina will kick our ass :{

Great... lost against spain in Basketball semifinals

Spain - Lithuania 20:00 91 - 86

But it ain't exactly an advert? A discussion about bike clothing for women more likely

Chris could simply just move this thread to "General discussions" thread as you usually get people here buying selling guitars and other stuff rather than discussing various things

People love listening to shite music nowadays and that simply explains the lack of solos in new bands.

80s!

First and the only album I bought :-)
