The recente news talk about a large operation that had dismantle Oink (who was this large torrent place for music).
A couple of hours later two others torrent sites were created (The hydra effect as they call it).
Ive focus my attention into this and ive found a post talking about this on other related subject, read carefully because i think in my opinion all this is true and we are seeing some major changes in the music business.
