I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

I am annoyed. I used that regularly for a perfectly legitimate purpose -- To transfer a weekly radio show from the UK to the US (600MB).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yeah. More than Megaupload being tits-up, I'm worried about "substantial non-infringing use" being shot all to hell as a principle.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to admit, I've rarely used MU for anything legal, but that's entirely not the point.
However, comments on the post list a number of alternatives. Get 'em while they're hot!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I've used megaupload for legal things. I own, or work for the people who own, a lot of copyrighted material. I really need to be able to convey it back and forth.

Speaking of the bad stuff, my private torrent site of choice seems to be under the weather. I thought it was SOPA-related yesterday, but there's a gibberish message on the front page today. Google doesn't help-I can't tell if they've been hacked or whatever. I'm at a loss!
If anyone has any invites to a good site that's not vanished suddenly, I'd be hugely grateful.

Holy shit, Anonymous is on a rampage:
Russian news service RT claims this is the largest coordinated attack in Anonymous' history—over 5,600 DDoS zealots blasting at once.

Yeah, by duping the unwitting into using their resources in the DDoS. Those people are not all zealots.
