suspected illegal music distribution.

A criminal investigation continues into the identities and activities of the site's
users

wow. Who wants to revolt when they try to charge the thousands of people who used it?

There is gonna be a fuckin' revolt if they keep this shit up. Honestly, what's the point? They can try to make examples of people all they want - nobody really cares, and everyone knows that some other file sharing site will just replace it. Should really be spending people's tax dollars on crimes worth fighting - crimes people actually want fought.

Down with the record companies! Because of oink i have given so much money to bands for shows. They see like 2 dollars of every cd sold in a store. These greedy record companies are disgusting.

Are they seriously going to try and arrest users? I mean 180,000 members is alot of people to put behind bars for sharing music and most of them probably aren't even 18.

Goddammit! My main resource for music lost forever...
