Will they ban libraries too? Because they are sharing the books!?!
If RS fails, it will rise 2 or more sites with the same business. Long live the knowledge sharing!

To all Rapidshare haters:

Can you find a file hosting-service where you can get as much content as you can on RS?

On RS there is much local content from Denmark ex tv-shows, tv series and films and I don’t think that you can get all that from another file hosting site.

Ok so the bastards want to filter out textbooks?

Of course they’re probably the $150+ editions that they come out with every other semester just to make poor college kids drop more cash on them.
