		<description>&#039;I think what I was most annoyed about with the “aftermath” of the OiNK takedown was the complete disregard for accurate reporting by the media, who made it seem like Mr OiNK was living the high-life, benefiting from the money he had deprived the lowly music execs of.

The reporters had no clue what they were talking about but much worse in my eyes, the police didn’t either.&#039;

Ahahaha 

that.</description>

		<description>IT&#039;s funny how they bust oink and think they&#039;ve taken down the hub of all that&#039;s wrong file sharing. Oink is the least of their concerns. Its a relatively small community of ppl who were quite passionate about music from what i can tell and would actually purchase the music their shared. I know i bought way more albums than ever before BECAUSE of oink. With them gone, i highly doubt i&#039;ll ever find another source to discover music so efficiently so it&#039;s important to see both sides of this. As i read somewhere before, it&#039;s kind of like someone walking into an art gallery and only being able to see the corner of every painting for sale. Most ppl on oink just wanted to see the whole painting. You have public trackers trading so much more music and who knows what else to random ppl all over the free world. I would assume those are the ones causing the most damage if they are at all, not a little community like oink. Pointing all the blame for pre-released music on oink is simply hilarious. It&#039;s unfortunte they aren&#039;t actually looking into the WHOLE situation before claiming to go head-hunting. I know many ppl might actually be done with torrents after all this...i know i am. I just wanted to be able to find and hear music because i had to fork out my hard earned money only to find out there was one song i liked on the whole album. I have a bad feeling if they start going after individual users, s@#t will really hit the fan and ppl will d/l more than ever just to make a point. You&#039;d have to arrest every second man , woman and child in the free world if this is the case. I&#039;m guessing taking down these sites one at a time will get the point across or simply making it illegal to host this type of community....its a tricky situation but all i know is that the music industry will actually lose money from me because of all this. Now isn&#039;t that ironic??</description>

Oh wait... being an individual is dangerous, be sure you are as big as Google so they will ignore you.</description>

		<description>i was an oink user for the past few months. i originally found myself there through finding out that an album i had worked on was &quot;leaked&quot; close to 4 months ahead of it&#039;s intended commercial release. i found myself an invitation and started to use it, trying to understand how it works from the user perspective. 

i must say, it was a very good system, all it lacked was monetisation. it was easy to find good music, downloads were often good quality (not just FLAC, mp3&#039;s in various rates from the same album for example), lots of lost gems. 

i do find the &quot;leaking&quot; of material before it&#039;s intended commercial reelase date quite rude, this is probably mostly done by journalists and people who receieve advance copies. under what intention, i&#039;ve no idea, maybe they want to appear cool and elitist, which it isn&#039;t, at all, since in most cases, people who leak the work were never an integral, crucial part of the making it. in the case of the album i was involved in, i hadn&#039;t even heard the finished version!

oink did have a sense of fairness though, they had no files that led to the new radiohead album and instead, when you searched for it, it went to the band&#039;s website. yes, i bought it as well.

as i said earlier, it was a good website that promoted finding new music and exploration, within a fairly safe environment; real music fans. 

if a rights governing body, made from the ground up, that is not full of the political bs that surrounds existing rights agencies for physical and broadcast were to exist and handle rights management and collection of monies from websites such as oink.cd, a subscription model would be perfect. for such, i would  be willing to pay.

as for the curent state of music, a lot of the problem lies in the fact that the current value structure is no longer valid and probably has not been for the past 5 years, but a lot of people still want to cling on to this crippled model. believe me, i was/am one of them. i have come to realise in the past few months that those days are gone for many and on it&#039;s last legs for the successful and one has to create a new/recycled viable method of music commerce that is kinder to the curious fan, serious fan, the people that make the music and those that help to sell it.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if this is true, but I read on TorrentFreak, the user database was stored on a RAM drive. If the RAM drive has a backup battery, some models (e.g. Gigabyte) only last up to 90 minutes once the system is pulled from the wall jack.</description>

		<description>I still say that TVLinks has been THE influence for me watching television again. 

So many times I hear about great shows, but have no way of catching up so i never watch. Or I miss a couple episodes, feel like I can&#039;t catch up, and give up on watching them.

But I could either catch up with new shows, or fill in gaps to already watched shows with TVLinks. Since the quality was so crappy, I didn&#039;t actually WANT to watch TVLinks, I&#039;d rather watch it on television. So I ended up trying to watch it on the television set instead, watching commercials, giving the channels higher ratings.

Now it&#039;s gone. I wish media companies thought about this sort of thing a bit more.</description>

		<description>Please check out this site I have made:
http://www.save-tv-links.co.uk

The idea behind the site is to create a publicly accessible resource of accurate information on the tv-links case and create a discussion forum around it. It also exists to offer what ever support is possible to give to the innocent.

Anyone who can contribute or has any ideas that would make this site more functional please get in touch; the aim is too get as much information in one place as possible.

		<description>The wonders of being a US colony :D Oh, the irony ... what goes around comes around I guess.

In 50 years there will likely be no file sharing in the American sphere of influence, which millitarily speaking is everywhere, but I imagine they will succeed in getting file sharing stamped out in Australia, Canada, New Zealand as well ... French and Germany are debatable.

To Russia it is ... In Russia you do not link to illegal content, illegal content links to you!</description>

		<description>The difference with OiNK users and other websites that have been taken down is that the donations might be trackable through Paypal.  Like most sites, it is international, could there be legal ramifications or would it most likely be the RIAA tracking people down if anything.  Who is to say?  Since the guy was let go on bail I am under the impression that this, like other sites, will blow over.</description>

		<description>What kind of scumbag steals from musicians? And hand your standard BS about how you&#039;re handing it to the man, or that you liked listening to rare stuff. If you downloaded music you could have bought, YOU&#039;RE A THIEF.</description>

		<description>“OiNK was an invitation-only private tracker that mostly dealt with members trading new release or pre-release albums, and primarily in FLAC (lossless) format.”

#9 is right -- this is completely false.  The number of FLAC torrents was probably 5-10% (at most) of all music uploads, and far less than that if you base it on total snatches.

The amount of misinformation flying around from otherwise reputable sources on this story is pretty remarkable.  If you don&#039;t know the facts, ask someone who does.</description>
