- dcmcderm, on 03/27/2008, -4/+152Everyone should download something extra today as a farewell tribute. Long live TPB!
- TH3W1R3D, on 03/27/2008, -4/+94Though in this case it should be the MPAA, ah hell ***** um both.

- SeaBass22, on 03/27/2008, -2/+69ctrl+c, open notepad, ctrl+v
- joeycerone, on 03/27/2008, -13/+71***** the riaa
- bosssmiley, on 03/27/2008, -4/+60also, ***** the MPAA!
"For every one you kill, a hundred will take their place." - anon. - inactive, on 03/27/2008, -1/+49I'm pretty sure the RIAA knows about Google.
- AsSubtleAsABrik, on 03/27/2008, -1/+49Digg should let you add comments to your favorites.
- simonbp, on 03/27/2008, -5/+45"And from the ashes of the hydra, three more shall rise."
You're badly mixing metaphors:
The Phoenix is a creature that is reborn from its ashes.
When the Hydra gets a head cut off, multiple heads grow back.
Better statements:
"And from the Hydra's bloodied neck stump, three more heads shall rise to replace the one lost."
"And from the ashes of the Phoenix, another shall rise." - Topher06, on 03/27/2008, -5/+44Good, in the last year or so all they did was link to mininova anyways.
- dark2025, on 03/27/2008, -2/+33...and you should learn to use the reply function.
- musntSurfatWork, on 03/27/2008, -3/+34I love Mininova.
- zmigliozzi, on 03/27/2008, -2/+32Sorry to say RIAA/MPAA, you will never stop file sharing so save the time and effort.
- mc786030, on 03/27/2008, -7/+35youtorrent.com = the best!
- Sensai, on 03/27/2008, -1/+28Same. :-/
It's been shut down for a while for US citizens for a while now and I wasn't sure why, but they explained it in the article. Due to pressure from The Man, they had to submit stats of each user and they opted to protect us from the US.
And I know this is a little off subject, but with all the crazy people in this world raping 5 month old babies and lying about being shot at, etc, it's nice to see that there are people who I don't even know who would risk their finances to provide me and then risk their business by trying to protect me.
R.I.P. - TheCosmicFool, on 03/27/2008, -3/+29Wouldn't it be the neck of the hydra? The Phoenix rises from the ashes, but only 1 is reborn.
The neck of the hydra would be where 1 head is cut off and 2 replace it. - vstro24, on 03/27/2008, -2/+26damn thats where i got my first torrent from :'( now i got to see it go away.
- BobMysterioso, on 03/27/2008, -1/+23publicity to torrent sites? it has the word TORRENT in the url. Aside from TPB which generates its own publicity, any site with torrent in the url is not in any way trying to be private or secretive. Its like when I drive my black van around that says "Molester" on the side nobody gives me directions to the candy store.
- borez, on 03/27/2008, -1/+22I used to love Torrentspy, but as soon as they turned off the comments section and gave you multiple Poker site windows when you clicked on a torrent I knew something was up. It was like some subliminal warning from the admins.
RIP, you'll be missed - Godlike, on 03/27/2008, -1/+22There was a time when all I wanted out of torrents could be found on torrentspy... it was the most up to date resource that there was. It unfortunately went pretty downhill after the ban on North America but just like Suprnova it will always have its place in torrent history.
- dudeguy1234, on 03/27/2008, -1/+21Damn.
- kevisazombie, on 03/27/2008, -2/+21hadn't they been blocking US ips from the site for quite some time now? Thats why I stopped going.
- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -0/+18He meant from the neck ash
- maisteri, on 03/27/2008, -2/+20ctrl+x, ctrl+v
HAHAHA it's mine!! - DeathMote, on 03/27/2008, -3/+20Um, they did that to protect American users because of the possibility of getting their data subpoenaed and getting users in trouble.
- vardhaman2249, on 03/27/2008, -1/+17torrentspy was awesome once upon a time,...RIP
- novenator, on 03/27/2008, -9/+25Obligatory... ***** THE MPAA
- BradBrown, on 03/27/2008, -1/+16When are you kids going to get the Demonoid website up and running? I realize the tracker is already active. Uncle Brad loved to search Demonoid for software [for backup copies of software he already had licenses for, of course. I would never copy that floppy]. Good times my man...good times...
- Marijuana, on 03/27/2008, -0/+15Here at Digg we take our acronyms seriously.
- REBELinBLUE, on 03/27/2008, -4/+18That is possibly true, but oddly enough the US isn't the only country on the planet.
I know it is hard to believe, I was shocked when I found out to. :p - LordofChaosIori, on 03/27/2008, -11/+25I know you're trying to help... but bringing publicity to torrent sites just gets them shut down. If someone really needs help finding torrents they shouldn't be using them in the first place.
- inigomntoya, on 03/27/2008, -0/+14They also had a quasi Digg system for articles, didn't' they?
- borninda818, on 03/27/2008, -2/+16OVER 9000!!!!
On a serious note, your comment alone is worthy of top 10 of the week. Put it on some blog somewhere and submit. - inactive, on 03/27/2008, -2/+15In other words, "fukken saved".
- Shadowgamers, on 03/27/2008, -1/+12They've tried to shut down Piratebay for years now to no avail. Those multi-nation servers must be doing them proud.
- samurimaster, on 03/27/2008, -5/+16Today is a sad day in deed for the pirate community, whether you liked them or not they shouldn't have gone like that.
- Godlike, on 03/27/2008, -0/+11You... didn't have to visit it?
- ssj4vegita2002, on 03/27/2008, -0/+11Youtorrent really only exists because of the other torrent sites. granted it does a great service of aggregating all the other sites.
- Spor, on 03/27/2008, -8/+18I believe the standard is to caps-lock that. Just FYI.
- buddamus, on 03/27/2008, -2/+12If you strike me down I will become a more powerful than ever before
- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -0/+10Thoes above me takes their facts from the Hercules cartoon movie.
- ileftfark, on 03/27/2008, -0/+10Holy ***** - responding to someone else's comment without referencing their username or the reply button FOUR HOURS after they made the initial comment for the ***** win! You got style!
- enterneo, on 03/27/2008, -0/+10MASSIVE !
- xXShadowstormXx, on 03/27/2008, -1/+10Man, that is a ***** of torrent sites.
