I am a member of another torrent site, which has the largest and best quality classical music section (I listen only classical music). This site has been down three times within a year because of legal actions. Now the server is in Canada but it would have been much wiser to deploy it either in Russia or in China because in these countries nobody cares torrenting.

Yes and i'm told by a person I know who works for the boro police that they are considering taking action against the UK users for downloading the music. They are now as I type doing a cost effective first, to see how much it could cost man power etc and take action against the uk users.

I am former oink member and I am waiting for waffles and what.cd to open and get an invite. I just don't see how to get them in the first place. I joined oink when it first started and was a limited membership - I just waited for an opening and joined. I think the replacement sites are starting out invite only.
