01.22.12 | and yeah, this doesn't anger me because i like filesonic a lot (there are much better sites) but because of the implications this has for similar sites |

PhaseNet
01.22.12 | Noooooooooo I have downloaded so much content from this site throughout the last year when I discovered it, this is awful news. |
Acanthus
01.22.12 | Though in brief retrospect this isn't that hard to get around -upload content, provide password and change it daily while locking your other content you don't want shared. |
StrangerofSorts
01.22.12 | That's it. I'm searching for some of those big 100 albums long "must hear" lists and downloading everything. |

01.22.12 | there are always torrents... though not as convenient or as fast as mediashare |

01.22.12 | If they get rid of mediafire I will be so pissed.
Why the fuck are they asserting that free online storage is illegal? These sites weed out copyrighted material. |

jdennis31
01.22.12 | "Why the fuck are they asserting that free online storage is illegal? These sites weed out copyrighted material." it seems like they are acting like SOPA actually got passed. |
keyboardxmosh
01.22.12 | It's almost like they didn't need SOPA in the first place, realized it would cause way too much
trouble, and are just being dicks because their propaganda failed. |
jdennis31
01.22.12 | lol, if we came to that assertion at the exact same time, i'm pretty sure we aren't the only ones. feelin some public outrage on this soon... but then again most people might have had their minute of protestation and just forgot about it again |

ValeriusTheImmortal
01.22.12 | popular artists are going to be on torrent, mediafire, etc
this isn't changing anything about that
this is hurting really obscure OOP releases that are near impossible to find that happen to be uploaded to some of these sites. |
Restrikted
01.23.12 | I mean there's always the youtube to mp3 converter... |
ValeriusTheImmortal
01.23.12 | true, youtube actually has some of the obscure ones, and that will work if all else fails, but some stuff isnt even on utube |
keyboardxmosh
01.23.12 | Youtube sound quality is nothx. |
ValeriusTheImmortal
01.23.12 | when you are dealing with an album so obscure but so kick ass, you take what you can get |

SCREAM!
01.23.12 | "popular artists are going to be on torrent, mediafire, etc

If they targeted megaupload and then filesonic, mediafire could very well be next. I thought even you'd be able to put that together |
SCREAM!
01.23.12 | I think the best sound quality i ever got from a youtube downloader was 192kbps which isn't bad but i like to keep it 320 when i can |
anarchistfish
01.23.12 | Ok guys from what I can gather, it's filesonic themselves that decided to cut off their filesharing services. not sure if that's a good sign or not |
ValeriusTheImmortal
01.23.12 | my point is file sharing isn't going anywhere. but some very obscure albums could take a while to be put back up. |
ValeriusTheImmortal
01.23.12 | its a bad sign, because from what i can gather a lot of people used it for documentaries |
Ovrot
01.23.12 | Yeah
Filesonic did this of their own volition |

ValeriusTheImmortal
01.23.12 | i doubt that(waffles). it wasnt just mediafire, it was megaupload, filesonic, rapidshare, mediafire, hotfile, 4shared, netload, fileserve, and others. i havent seen a torrent site that had the amount of stuff spread around the web in different file servers that can be searched with filetram, filestube, google. will check this waffles out anyway |

01.23.12 | I do recall that Spec. Coincidentally I downloaded that Katy Perry album off of waffles |

americanohno
01.23.12 | has anybody mentioned yet that this, along w/ megaupload's downfall, is really gonna limit the porn options i got. cuz it will.
my uni internet blocks all porn sites and proxies so I can't use the streaming sites so my only option is downloading and now the federal gov't wants to take that away from me too!
I can't just pleasure my self w/out videos of women debasing themselves for a paycheck! |

01.23.12 | BUT YOU'RE JUST A FILE SHARING SITE THAT I USEDDDD TO KNOWWWW |

01.23.12 | I decided to look around to see what other kind of backlash there is to this megaupload thing, and there seems to be a ton more dead links and messages about files being removed due to copyright infringement. It's like all these file sharing places finally looked at all the complaints and 'fixed' them all at once. |
