Pop Artists Support Megaupload; Universal Censors

New submitter TheSHAD0W writes "Several well-known artists, including P. Diddy, Will.I.Am, Snoop Dogg and Kanye West produced a song in support of the site Megaupload, recently targeted by law enforcement as a 'rogue site.' The music video was gaining popularity — until YouTube received a takedown notice from Universal Media Group, claiming it violated their copyrights."

Well big media bought and paid for the DMCA so of course we are free to use it any way we damn please.

Now shut up, we are in the middle of a board meeting to decide who is going to be president next term.

Yea, I'd have to say The Pirate Bay is the scummiest warez site I've ever dealt with in my life. Remember when warez was done with honor? When it was done with pride?

TPB is just another scam site that happens to marginally useful torrents. Its only slightly better than Googling for a crack.
