The Russian government has closed down AllofMP3 and those who are trying to access its sister site, MP3Sparks, or another replacement may be disappointed that the site also seems to have disappeared. But never fear, those Russians have plenty of alternatives. We take a look at some of them.
We have a guest on this weeks show. Lermy, one of the admins of the private BitTorrent tracker TorrentIt joins Charlie!
