Who says piracy doesn?t pay? Try telling that to professional uploaders on warez forums and release blogs who are now boycotting RapidShare en masse. In the aftermath of the TF article which earlier confirmed RS has terminated their entire Rewards program, it is no longer advantageous to upload files to RS. Realistically the decision will indeed have a negative impact on RapidShare?s own revenue take for new subscriptions, not to mention dissuade uploaders from using the service at all

A reader recently posted this on RlsLog.net:
"Let?s teach the greedy losers at Rapidshare an important lesson! No one use Rapidshare or post rapidshare links! Let?s give our hard earned money to any other downloader, even if same cost as rapidshare. They need to be forced out of business for their most recent despicable stunt!" - Source here.
One could easily dismiss the above testimonial to be from an isolated, disgruntled user who feels he?s been wronged by the changes in RapidShare?s policies. The reality is the boycott is very much real. Everywhere you look, new RS links are drying up on just about every popular scene blog and forum. Nobody is posting RS anymore, and rightly so.

For evidence, check out todays release on RlsLog:
