RIAA Targets 21 Sites For Shutdown

Posted by Soulskill on from the go-big-or-go-home dept.

New submitter souperfly writes "The Inquirer has a list of 21 sites that the RIAA is looking to get shut down by ISPs this week. The list includes sites filestube, Bomb-Mp3, Mp3skull, Bitsnoop, Extratorrent, Torrenthound, Torrentreactor and Monova, and at least one ISP — Virgin Media in the UK — has confirmed the number of targeted sites. BT confirmed it will block the site, but didn't say when. Before, it was thought that only six sites were lined up for a chop."

    And, ah, yes, iTunes, AmazonMP3 are just terrible market failures that prove no one still pays for music.
