I like their argument that they provide the same service as e.g. Google from a legal standpoint. Google links to most of their content; all they do is solely index a particular type of file (.torrent) which can be used for legal or illegal purposes.

So I think Google, etc. should be sued for the same thing. To show how stupid the whole law is.

 

I hear google makes BILLIONS out of this. LYNCH THEM!

Yeah. Suppose 10% of the indexed content on the web of all kinds is illegal. Thus, 10% of Google's revenue is from linking to illegal content just as TPB does. Which would be about $2b.

Or, as the IFPI etc., give up and find a better business model.
