Hotfile, 1000 Users and PayPal Named In Piracy Lawsuit

[pooyan2012]

so what?
they close hotfile and then other file-hosts will pop-up.
they don't know that a pirate will never stop and will find another way for sharing even without any file-host!!?
they must stop these childish acts.

Interesting...
Tell me this, if you are to release your music album and you find it on RS, MU, HF, torrents, etc... Would you be happy?
Or if you have spent years programming some software or game, and some1 just uploads it to earn 1c for 1 download?

of course not... but you dont have knowledge to do anything like that, or even know how to make a first step
You'll just write bullsh*t on forums and think how smart you are with earning few bucks a month.
They have every right to sue and remove that content, and if they wanted to be serious about that, believe me, you couldn't do the damn thing, some1 else maybe could, but you... never

Really i think this whole file-hosting scene is a bunch of bullshit. P2p in many cases is a lot faster, free, and non restraining. I know im gonna get shit from this comment too, but all uploaders that are uploading are a bunch of effing idiots, get off your ass and go get a real job that pays legit money. I know that there are some semi-legit uploaders out there that are actually uploading to provide downloads for there for there website or something, but still there really isnt a whole ton of money in the warez scene i mean yeah theres hosters and stuff but thats a different story.

I too hate hotfile. There are plenty of other servers out there that do not delete links all the time. They have a short life on hotfile. I left them for other servers that are even better a while ago. I do not miss them at all.
Narutoroot if you get reamed for that comment than I will hold your hand. I firmly believe true warez is free. Why try to make money off your users when you get the program for free and worse yet offer it as a free app or something. I am sure some disagree, but really people. it's really about quality, not quantity.
