I was looking up pirate textures for cosmics new pack, and i came across a HUGE pirating site called the pirate bay .org.
I have a question: Why on earth is this site allowed to exist? I mean, why hasnt microsoft or anyone done anything about it?
That is plain wrong.
The people who created that site should be jailed.

The Pirate Bay has been bought over and is going legal, I believe - If memory serves the original owners have had to pay millions in fines but I think they made a profit from the sale

But... All those torrents? I did a quick scan just now, and they have FPSC, FPSC x10, and all sorts of games.

{edit} and I just now saw where it says they REFUSE to remove ANY torrents.
{edit2} I agree, except i would make it USD.

Use it all the time and love it. You linking it here is helping there cause by the way, and I'm not sure what this has to do with fpsc chat. If I plan on using software for commercial reasons I'll buy it.

If software companies want to really stop piracy, then they need to flood these sites with fake torrents. You stop one site 10 will pop up to replace it.

edit: I also love that you said fpsc is on the site. Seriously use your head man.

here is a quote from one of the sites :


Quote: "According to gaming company Global Gaming Factory X, it is in the the process of acquiring The Pirate Bay for $7.8m (SEK 60 million). The acquisition is scheduled to be completed by August and will see the site launch new business models to compensate content providers and copyright owners."

WTH , What kind of thing is that ? Theres nothing in the world now that will stop piracy, almost 3/4 of the planets population do it now.

I can say that people dont even use torrents anymore, according to what I read, people prefer to use NZB's Now

I cant renember where I read it though :S
