Yet again they are wasteign thier time and money,insted of dealign with the real issues they would rather rape the costumer and charge them by the hour,if they would deal with the real issues of over priceing and over chargeing work within the law and enforce fair use rules/laws thigns would imporve form them,and lets not forget if they started up digital distrobution and had fair/cheap priceing plans (think of haveing all the C-P content of 20th cen FOX on hand from thier severs you cna downlaod it and do with it what you want but cant sell it, for 5-20 a month like DVD rental plans the more you pay the faster downlaods are and the more monthly bandwith alotment you get the qaluity would DVD quatily),at this rate the lwyers will be the only ones left standing......

This site really rocks. Actually i never registered in this site, but i have been visiting the site for quite some time now. When I read this news man i was dissapointed, i just had to put in my views and show my support for the site.

I really really hope things go well and the site doesnt have to go down......

ladies and gentleman of the supposed jury , this is Chewbacca LOL classic
I look at it this way,
a gun isnt illegal, but what its used for could be potentially illegal meaning someone could comit murder with it, but u dont see the gun makers being sued for someones son being shot in a gang war or what not
the technology which you are providing is not illegal, but the user has the potential to make it illegal ie distributing and downloading copyrighted material , dont hate the player hate the game, that what I have to say about it, you are doing nothing wrong, you have a clear disclaimer, and if ppl want to so call "abuse" the technology they should come after the people violating that rule, not the provider, same as the internet itself the mpaa should sue the cia for creating the internet in the first place cause that has made it possible to distribute it in the first place
stupid clowns, it will get laughed out of court

It all boils down to this, you didn't invent it, you don't give the files, all you do is list words on a screen. It's not your control of what ppl do and don't do with the information.

does webster gets sued for words in their book if someone doesn't like it????

So the MPAA wants to shut down P2P and torrent indexing. On the basis that it could be used to transfer copyrighted material.

Working on this basis, video and motion picture cameras should be outlawed for the reason that it could used for the production of child porn. Prostitution can also be found at certain adult theatres, and on this basis all Movie theatres should be immediately asked to close down. Does this sound stupid? Yes it does, but using the MPAA reasoning, it must be done. Some video stores have been found to contain pirated or offensive material so Blockbuster and similair businesses should cease being allowed to conduct legal business on the grounds that it is possible that their distribution centres could be used for illegal videos.

But why stop there, next step should be the total banning of automobiles, as these machines have been used in 9/10 armed robberies and kidnappings. Subway systems are known to be used by criminals and despite the fact that most travellers are riding the subway as innocent people surely they should also be made to suffer from the actions of the few.

Why aren't cars buses subways, movie houses and cameras banned from the public? Because they are also used for legitiment reasons and to punish the majority for the crimes of a minority, would be seen as a massive over reation by the authorities. P2P file sharing can be seen as the subways of the internet, used to transport legitimate files, punishing those that seek to do the right thing such as sites like Isohunt and its 400,000 members being deprived of the freedom to seek legitimate files must be seen as what it is, an invasion of the rights of people of the freedom to seek information or share their own files.

Isohunt has a takedown policy, if the MPAA or RIAA can identify the files that belong to them, then its removed from the listings. Attempting to shut down indexing sites, such as this one can easily be seen as the lazy way out. Get rid of sites that act with decency, and you get left with the criminals. God help us then!

I remember when suprnova went down quicker than a ton of bricks, and it took me quite a while to find is so instead of waiting, why not set up a fund now, not to fight the MPAA but a fund to move to overseas servers and avoid being here one day and gone the next!!!!!

You don't know me, so I'll cut you some slack, this time.

When I say something like "I got your back", I truely mean it, otherwise I don't say it.

Also, I am not afraid of the law. The MPAA and RIAA have no jurisdiction in Ontario, and their Canadian counterparts don't scare me one bit. They can come here all they want. I'll just slap them in the face and tell them to be on their way.

And I have several more friends who will stand behind me, if it came to that.

Im Not Afraid Either, I Also Live In Ontario And The MPAA Has No Power Here. I Will Stand By And Make Sure People Know Of The Injustice That Is Being Committed. I Think All Canadians Should Stand Strong Against Corporate Americans Trying To Take Advantage Of Us!

Why is the MPAA suing a Canadian? This was already tried... They wont suceed lol.. Out of the post I read ... With the current laws (In Canada) I would counter sue... Harassement might work i guess..

All i can say is good luck guys, there are millions of people who rely on you for their entertainment, f**k the MPAA they earn millions everyday why cant they find another way to make money rather than suing i like the idea of moving the servers to somewhere with different laws, theres a spare room in my house! GOOD LUCK IH

If they cut down isohunt, others will rise from the ashes.
You (NPAA) can not stop the will to share.

Establish more servers, duplicate the archives, teach everyone how to construct a torrent library, teach freedom to those mother fuckers of the NPAA.

Never forget that;
We will never surrender to your dictatorial North American chauvinist white LAW.
We will not cease to exist.
We will not give up to the mass consumption of bad quality products, movies and television shows.

Remember that;
We are the people that judge constantly the quality of market.
We are the people that give opportunities to young artist to be known.
We are the people who search new uses of technology for the wealth of us all.

It is real that a neo-Nazi hypocritical contradictorily disordered sexually fetish nation teaches freedom and now wants to take that back from U.S. citizens because the supporting transnational enterprises are loosing a meager of their wealth? Yes it is United States and specially NPAA.

WE ARE ANARCHY.
