oddcrap Share Posted February 10, 2005 Im talking to "lowkee" on MSN, he said that the he shut down the site because the judge apparently ordered it to be shut down untill the trial is complete. If you look were the images are they are at Loki's server: http://lokitorrent.com/mpaa.gif This proves that he shut down the site, and not the MPAA. Link to post Share on other sites

MateoGWJ Share Posted February 10, 2005 Wow... the site gets shut down and people immediately start accusing the guy of stealing the money. Well, that might indeed turn out to be the case, BUT it is too soon to tell and you are all talking out your behinds - no-one knows yet. 585447768[/snapback] No honor among infringers, huh? :laugh: Link to post Share on other sites

mattisking Share Posted February 10, 2005 I'm not going to speak against stopping piracy. I understand it, and to a point I might go as far as saying I aplaud it... I dunno. When I was a few years younger I think I probably had a slightly different opinion on it (read radically different but work in any of these industries for a while and you'll understand). At any rate, what does **** me off is that torrents, while frequently used for "stealing" I suppose, music sometimes, though usually software and movies, is a method for retrieving data on the internet and it's not always used illegally. The most common way I personally use torrents is for downloading episodes of TV shows I missed. Sure, that's corny, but it's what I do and I'm not stealing from anyone. Sometimes I come home and for some reason the digital cable box reset (turned off) so my Tivo only recorded black, or I forget to set up a recording, or it got moved because of a sporting event or something, or... whatever. Lokki was a very consistent place for me to get my show and watch it and now it's gone too. If groups like the RIAA and MPAA want to attack websites for this kind of thing I really wish they'd find a way to do it without punishing those that want to use it legally... or at least in a way that's not purposefully illegal.

There are lots of legitimate uses: downloading linux distros, FilePlanet uses a version of it (as I understand), Legaltorrents.com (great little site, BTW), etc. Anything where large files need to get moved from one point of the ether to another. But are you sure that TV shows are "fair use"? I can't find anything that supports that. Link to post Share on other sites
nvizible Share Posted February 10, 2005 Not really a surprise, they will get to all of them sooner or later.
