WinMX Suspends Operations

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the i'll-take-non-extradition-ip's-for-500-alex dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Slyck.com is reporting that it appears the WinMX network has shut down its operations in response to the RIAA's letters threating legal action. Although the WinMX network is currently down, this may only be temporary as developers seem to have relocated from Canada to Port Villa, Vanuatu."

    Maybe they'll be able to dodge some taxes while they're there too.

    If you have or would like to set up an online gaming operation, and want a regulated and secure environment that has tight, but not rediculous, gaming regulations

    Maybe they should rename themselves 'The Federal Republic of Slashdot'. Not only are they tolerant to Internet Gambling and P2P operations but they appear to be the first country to have slashdotese as their national language.
