Oooooh yeah this is rough actually. Megavideo was my boy. For the first 47 minutes at least.

Haha you should really look into to why megaupload was shut down. They were doing a shit-ton a REALLY illegal shit, haha. I'm honestly shocked at how they didn't get shut down months ago.


Agreeing with you on this, Xynn. Most of the internet isn't mentioning anything about the money laundering and racketeering charges that are being brought against them:

Reported Statement wrote:"The conspirators allegedly paid users whom they specifically knew uploaded infringing content, and publicised their links to users throughout the world," a statement said.

"By actively supporting the use of third-party linking sites to publicise infringing content, the conspirators did not need to publicise such content on the Megaupload site."

I've never used Megaupload.

However, no more Mute Sims 6. What a horrible day to format my PC.

Yes, Mute Sims 6 is gone forever and it will never return, ever. In a thousand years, people will question the existence of Mute Sims 6 the same way as people question the existence of god.

praise the holy MuteSim6. only through him can one reach nirvana (I probably just completely grooved up that religious ideology)
"Stepmania Science" methods are just an overly simplified writing method that people use to objectify an artistic process, but it's also not a good idea to just abandon convention and spew arrows haphazardly across a chart.

Yeah but i'm uncomfortably surprised by the speed of events. We're running to the total restriction of sharing on the internet at this rythm. I'm sure dropbox will be menaced soo. they may close most of all the sharing sites on the entire web. Internet is on the way to change, and i think we're not gonna like it ...

Mediafire will be fine. They shut enough copyrighted links, and don't charge a lot of money for datahosting.

We are all aware that Google hosts free music and unlimited downloads to China, correct? My question is why THEY'RE still up.
