You can't get rid of illegal material from the internet no matter how much you try 2. Isohunt has a good chance of winning since the material may be copyrighted, but the torrent is not. 3. The admin has a valid point, and shall get the required support. 4. The files they have MAY be against the copyright, but that in no way means the conditions that have been laid out are valid. Simple enough…

Would this mean that WebTV wire is in the same boat for linking to IsoHunt? Wow i hope that IsoHunt is strong in this...

The current political climate here in Canada is one such that American business interests trump the wishes of Canadians. From what I can see our fractured left is not in a position to do much to slow down the united right. Even as the Conservatives work to destroy everything that is great about Canada, I watch them use the tactics of Karl Rove to get further ahead. And Canadians seem to be falling for it... I always thought we as a country were too smart for this. What bearing does it have on isoHunt? Tons. The Media conglomerates and their lobbyists have offices in Harper's Ottawa. What can be done? Stop buying media from RIAA member companies. EVERY disc bought from one of the 'big-6' media companies puts money into the legal assault against isoHunt, and other great sites. EVERY DVD you buy from an MPAA company is just a lawyer's fee partially paid. They want to cling to their dying business model, let them have it. Just don't participate. Vote with your dollars.
