Piratebay is dead, long live OpenBitTorrent
I admit it: the day when I heard of piratebay purchase was not a good day.
To sum up in two words what happened, the record companies have sued the three cock (in a good way, eh?) Who founded thepiratebay.org, the largest system of sharing file in the world, companies have won the first trial and the three began to put their oars in the boat, selling servers to a company that deals with advertising and internet cafes , saying that they would make the Bay a Legal ( press release).
Now, the idea of \u200b\u200binventing a system of compensation for content creators per se is not bad, and I would love to see a system that balances the freedom of users and revenue to the creators, not as iTunes, that if you try to copy a file from one player to another sends home a pack of rabid dogs.
In my case not going to make: they are advertising, not hackers, their job is to sell, not innovate. Who remembers the order that made Napster? Even that was great, and was bought and sold by record unable to sink into oblivion.
That said, who will be the successor of the Bay? Perhaps no one, and there will be a transition to a distributed system , with many small servers instead of a large and vulnerable. We can do this, we have the technology .
For the moment, TorrentFreak reports a substitute for Pirate Bay : openBitTorrent.com , a project run by volunteers who for the time fishing data from the Bay. Server in the Netherlands and Norway, broadband, and all requirements in order to ascend to the throne of pirates.
Progress is great and with a little 'luck in a few years the record companies take the same view of the sellers of leeches. If you do not help, why should they stay?
