TTi - legal music only now

Interesting point, what if TPB had a takedown link? I mean, just like with newsgroups, anyone could just turn around and re-upload, but would that help legally? I know they specifically dont have one because they wanted to be an uncensored haven.

I'm not sure, but I do think it would help because it shows two things: that it is hard to completely moderate infringing content due to users reuploading and more generally, being amenable to following the laws rather than trying to argue they don't apply to you will probably help when you're before a judge/jury who doesn't download. Like put yourself in the shoes of someone who can understand the issues, but does not have the bias of downloading for years, would you really take TPB's arguments seriously given their stance on sharing files? I'd imagine to such a person that it is pretty clear, common sense really, that overall they're running a site that allows people to upload infringing content and that they're completely in favor of that.

I hope they will go back to being 0day in the future, I don't think most users will appreciate this switch to a very niche area.
