OiNK shut down!!
Very inaccurate article from BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/tees/7057812.stm

This is the worst news ever. Right before the free holiday leech!! How could they.

RIP- the best music torrent site ever.

I'm just bitter because I was never smart enough to work it all out, like remaining 'clever' and all that shit.

somehow, OiNK managed to stay off wikipedia while it was alive. This is the new wiki entry:



"OiNK was a prominent BitTorrent tracker. On October 23, 2007, it was pwnzored [1].



The site was an invitation-only service and had 180,000 members at the time of closure. It was the largest torrent tracker which focused mainly on music torrents. According to the BBC, International Federation of the Pirate Interests (IFPI) claims that OiNK was responsible for leaking "60 major league pre-release albums this year alone." [2]



Maybe this will help teach these thieves a lesson: music stealing is ILLEGAL, it WILL NOT be tolerated."

Yep- they're treating OiNK as if it's the top of the food chain, though it's really not.

No, they know it's not the top, but it's probably the biggest distributor-- which, from a revenues perspective, makes it a far bigger catch. It's not the leaks, so much as the spread.

True but you also have to watch for the splash backs, especially if you're wearing suede shoes

It will now be exactly one metric iota more difficult for people to steal music.

"Stealing" is not the same as unauthorized reproduction. When will news sources figure that out?

Yeah! And I didn't shoplift those beanie babies from the Hallmark store. I was simply transporting them outside by covert means.
