Pirate Bay Court Loss Won't Stop the Flow of Files

Adrian Lopez writes "According to PC World, 'Hollywood may have won a battle, but the war against piracy is far from over. Unauthorized file sharing will continue (and likely intensify), if not through The Pirate Bay, then through dozens of other near identical swashbuckling Web sites. ... What Hollywood needs to remember is sites like The Pirate Bay are like weeds. When you try to kill one, they grow back even stronger. In this case, The Pirate Bay already moved most of its servers to the Netherlands, a move that could keep the site running even if The Pirate Bay loses its appeal.'"

The thing is though they don't watch it for free. It's full of ads. In fact they have more ads not than when compared to even a couple decades ago. Movies now have normal ads before the previews.

That may be fine for some people but quite frankly I rather pay a bit more and not have to sit through so many ads. My time is more valuable than money.
