(okay, quite outdated example, but still, you get my point.)<BR/><BR/>The funniest thing is that while i see them struggling against p2p protocols, most media hosting sites like rapidshare, megaupload, mediafire etc... are used to illegally share full albums and movies. sure, the teams try to clean off illegal contents, but they can't check everything. also, dissimulating what an archive truly is can be really easy. <BR/><BR/>so i think that again they are using the wrong strategy. winning involves walking with the people, not against them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
