Do you think filehosting will ever go back to normal like before?

I for one are happy about this! i am tired of alot of these douchebags uploading (if thats wht u wannna call it) files, and DEMANDING to be paid for it. Well to those of you like that. FUCK OFF out of the warez scene, as you have no clue what its about. And to those trying to stop all of these shitty "filelockers" keep up the great work, you are only helping warez to become what its really about again.

Of course you can find infringing videos on any video service that allows user-generated content. But the defining difference that you're so conveniently avoiding is that YouTube does not exist for the sole purpose of promoting piracy. YouTube is the most legitimate channel of media distribution out there, next to iTunes, Amazon and Hulu. YouTube has massive distribution deals with major television networks.

People go to YouTube to watch NatGeo, or Ray William Johnson, or Philip DeFranco. People go to Rapidshare to download the latest full-length pirated FTV Girls video. Nobody goes to Rapidshare to upload videos of their kids to send to Grandma. Nobody's distributing links to family videos on the forums so they can get paid $30 per 1000 downloads. Nobody's getting paid hundreds of dollars for uploading that great video of Uncle Frank's 80th birthday party. See where I'm going with this? YouTube is the last place on the internet I'd go to download that cool movie that just hit the theaters yesterday.

Let's not forget the P4P business-model revolves not simply around ad revenue (although that's part of it), it is fueled almost entirely by you receiving a $30 compensation for 1000 downloads, or getting paid a certain guaranteed rate for certain in-demand movies and software. We're talking about immediate gratification, versus delayed gratification.

If you guys were in this for the ad revenue sharing, you'd be YouTube Partners or bloggers... not pirates.

Comparing YouTube to file lockers is just ridiculous.

I only agree that you can not share / upload the files that are legal sale on your country which would hurt the content creator.

Do you really think these shitty filehosts are going to advertise that they pay per download anywhere else other then KWWH? the simple answer is NO! they wont, as they know this is the former Katz Downloads webamster forum, or they see what it has become anyway, and start, or promote these crappy services here to make a buck, and all, well most, of you noobs fall for it and either get scammed (which i personally applaud) or they go down as they are chicken shit kids.

I cannot wait for all of the PPD filelockers to finally vanish from the warez scene, i may then come back to filesharing

[zyberakuma]

authorities suing filehosters for illegal contents, afaik this is the filehosters normal status.

[nmrs]

Megaupload is not normal. That's the age where it was ruined

no one can hack this site
where are the hackers -
http://stopfilelockers.com/

[JmZ]

why would you want to hack a perfectly legitimate website which is helping many businesses?

I suggest you and everyone else who is hating on it grow up.

I mean seriously, you're pirates, you break the law on a regular basis, you are the ones in the wrong, not them.
