Nothing whatsoever to the bulk of them (which includes several friends of mine too). It's impossible to go after 180,000 subscribers and at least 1,000,000 IP addresses. They'll employ scare tactics to put you off downloading, then they'll do fuck all. Bark not bite.

If they prosecute anyone outside of the owner/owners, it'll be the major uploaders and/or the people who leaked pre-release albums.

There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

everyone should read this article about the demise of OiNK and the music industry in general. It's got some brilliant points. A little long, but well worth the read.

The writer is a graphic artist who has worked with a number of major artists including extensively with trent reznor.

i figure even if it comes back, it won't be as good. alot of folks will probably be afraid to go back near it.
