Megaupload

Hmmm.. a new twist to the megaupload story...
A rumour is going around that the reason Megaupload was shut down, has little or nothing to do with illegal filesharing.

The real reason MU has been hit so hard, is that they were developing a legal alternative to buying music from the record lables.

Artists would alow MU to play their works without charging the listers. The artists would be payed from advertising revenues. Kind of spotify but a little different. Quite a few artists were onboard already
This was percieved as a huge threat to the music industry fatcats. And, just days  away from bringing this new idea online.... the whole MU gang gets busted.

Feels a little like corruption, doesnt it?
Thats cause it is....
