There was a piratebay.cr (Costa Rica?) for a while but I think that is gone too. I'm sure either TPB or some derivative thereof will be back soon enough. They never seem to have much success taking this shit down for longer than a few weeks.

Obviously. Until then there's about 10 alternatives floating around.

No you're not. Just isn't worth the time for me. What's been pissing me off though of late is paying for a brand new fucking game and then having to wait fucking hours for patches and shit to download. The reason I'd rather pay than pirate something is simply because of the time I save doing it and that aspect of paying for shit is starting to wear thin for me.

What? How can you even know that? I'm sure Doombrain has plenty respect for ants. Also, does anyone really care all that much if he is, in fact, going around disrespecting ants? What an odd thing to think about.

Problem is, movie/game publishers know their movies/games are being pirated, and I'm sure they'll know to what extent. This means that pirating something gives off the signal that there is a demand for something. Combine that with the thickness of the skulls in question and they'll never ask themselves why people are pirating. Instead they'll be searching for ways to translate said demand into sales.

I thought they'd set-up a distributed network after one of the previous raids to make taking the site offline difficult? If all the mirrors relied on the master server rather than sharing the database between themselves (you know, like how torrents work..) it seems like poor resiliency design.

I thought Usenet had gone downhill nowadays due to everything being corrupted due to DMCA takedowns? :shrug:.

It's vary rare for me to buy a day one game due to the fact that, as Kracus mentioned, they seem to needs patches and all sorts straight away. Also the fact that the prices drop like a stone and I hate buying things that are not needed as such and then two weeks later it being half the price it was before.
