ifpi membership = $250m.

other lawsuits = $155m

the smile u get seeing other pirate
site shuts down = pricele$$.

for everything else,there’s IFPI.

$250 million dollar annual membership fee!?

…And the IFPI has the audacity to brand OTHER PEOPLE as crooks. Their battle against filesharing is driven by nothing more than pure, miserable avarice.

I’d love to hear those slimeballs attempt to explain the morality of attacking people under the premise of “monetary damages” for freely sharing music, all the while their gilded coffers overflow with the money they gouge from record labels, who in turn rob their own artists.

What a sorry bunch of parasites.

Speaking of parasites… The IFPI did one shit-poor job of shutting down Metal Hub. I’m having some trouble reconciling this:

I make a comment before I go to sleep, I wake up, and it’s STILL “awaiting moderation”?

What does that even mean?

Seriously.

FYI, Putin 08, I’m taking your name from now on. Just for funsies.

I agree 100% What dumbass people pay 250 mil for some retard Orginization that does nothing.

Ladies, Gentlemen, Equals, More than Equal Party Elites, Polar Bears, and all other victims of Bush’s eco-terrorist global warming policies, here we have indisputable proof that Dear Leader Kim Jong Il’s guide to fascism, public education and eradication of free thought is working as advertised by the wonderful humanitarians of the motherland (soon to be gender-neutral-land, hillary be praised).

How else could a target of EMI subjugation, coercion, and we’ll just assume genocide, have been so steadfast and unyielding in his defense of party elites, despite, at the very least, the suspicion of a possible existence of another, non-party approved truth (Lenin forbid!).

“Having emailed around 12 torrent site owners, only 4 of them were ready to spill the beans. One very large torrent site with over 500.000 visitors per day told us that they are generating around 30-40K per month and a double of that amount during the last two months of the year. Another torrent site with more then 300.000 visitors told us that they were making 50K per month on average. The other two torrent sites were generating a revenue of 35-60K respectively.”

Not all trackers make money from ads. I go to a private tracker with no ads. The owner runs the tracker as a hobby, and every member contributes to the maintenance of the tracker through their hard work. Lighten up man… there are some good trackers out there. Most pirates aren’t motivated by money.

1) Disregarded.
2) We know.

Thank you for your contribution.

Your comrade,

Putin 08

but when a dinosaur wakes up because the shareholders have kicked out the incumbent MAFIAA then we know it is all over

filesharing, not piracy you scum, is gonna bloom all over this beautiful world

How about some figures from the IFPI please. Let’s put this into perspective shall we.[/quote]

Well comrade, there are no solid numbers with which we may compare. Party elites and website owners are too smart for that. Watch as these people’s leaders masterfully protect their rations from imperialist infidels.

(Interview with TPB)
CS asks: How much money do the Pirate Bay make per month from ads, and what happens to that money?
Peter: I don’t know exactly how much money we get.

Economicon asks: How much profit did the Pirate Bay make in 2006?
Peter: That is a good question. I have no idea.

CS asks: Why won’t you answer questions about your profits?
Peter: It feels like a cheap way to make us look like hipocrits.

CS asks: How much does your most expensive ad-package cost?
Peter: I have no idea.

CS asks: Who are running your finances?
Peter: An external company called Random Media who are based on the British Virgin Islands.

CS asks: Who is behind that company?
Peter: I don’t think we want to go there.

i agree with you, start to bloody finish

consider the majority of torrent site owners are not wealthy and their families live with the financial sacrifice involved when the major bread winner spends all his time on the net and paying for servers and code and not turning up for work …

consider $30,000/month and what you could buy …

then look at TPB and see they dont spend shit on their systems or development or furthering the cause

too much cocaine

Okay, so maybe a few people are making some money for taking their whole life and putting it on hold to run a site well are making a little money. At least they’re not making $250m per company with them for taking a year to shut down one thing that will be up within months. I don’t think they should be making money for running a torrent site but at least they’re doing something for their money unlike IFPI.
