  • Oink no more...

    Not sure how many of you care, oink.me.uk (or more revently oink.cd) has been shut down by european authorities....Sad....at least for me! Now they say they are investigating the activities of the sites users....ie: me! Thank god the RIAA has no authority here in canada!

      Well considering the member base on that site, thats alotta sueing thats gonna happen......I was never a "paid" member anyhow.....Plus I could have recorded any of the music I wanted directly off the radio which coincidentally is also free for all of us....so too bad

        I 'paid' to support the site, but I have a hard time believing that there will be any action taken against me when there were guys on that site that downloaded 3TB of music.

          Like me for example!

          Also the CRIA will get you in Canada and they are working closely with the RIAA, it is an international effort.

            One day the CRIA/RIAA/etc will realize you can not sue and tax people into being your customers.

                    according to OiNK, “the logs we store aren’t enough to incriminate users.”

                      I dunno about you guys but I don't know anything about security so I'm sure hackers use my computer remotely and store things without my knowledge. All the mp3s on my system just appeared there one day. Prove otherwise.
