How did those people drive traffic to the site? Via pirated material
YouTube is different because they show content with permission of the rightsholder.
MU had plenty of legitimate traffic. There's a ton of pirated stuff on YouTube, it's not like they ask the rightsholder for permission to show the content before making it public. They both accept(ed) DMCA.

Irony is not lost in this thread at all.
Sickbeard index still does everything. I always had sickbeard index above matrix and I think it very rarely used matrix over its index.

nzb.su - it appears they removed the main page working on purpose. I can still use it just fine if I go to nzb.su/login for example. I guess they don't want all the attention!
Yes to be fair there is pirated content on YouTube but I think it is fair to say they are very much moving towards licensed content via agreements they have with music companies, TV companies and film studios. They've also got a system in place to try and prevent unauthorized content from being uploaded in the first place. Could they be doing more? Perhaps, but at least they're making efforts in the right direction.
You don't understand the subject you're trying to discuss, that's your issue not anyone elses.
Megaupload's purpose was to shift data, very similar to the concept of removable storage, CDs/DVDs/Blurays. Are they all thieves too?
Oh, you also don't understand theft, or how to use apostrophes.
Educate yourself before trying to argue topics you don't understand. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but it's got to be an informed opinion, yours isn't.

I heard it was also that a lot of Usenet providers use the Highwinds servers which are very very poor at updating, I get a lot of issue's on Virgin media's free newsgroups, i would search for something using binsearch, try to download the NXB using grabit and it says "article not found", After readin it was probably due to these highwinds servers i purchased usenetserver.com for a month but then found the same issue, a bit more digging found that they also use the highwinds servers.
Giganews and Atraweb do not so i had no issue's with these. At first i thought it was because i have just started using a VPN but that didnt cause the issue.

Used these a few years back through virgin (or was it telewest?!) its a great idea but much like the legitimate video streaming services, the content is lacking.

Would that be the secret IRC channels often written in CAPS in the file header?
I do feel slightly nostalgic for the old way of doing things.

really?! I was glad to see the back of them tbh. Way too much hard work
one of the unintended consequences of this may be the increased uptake of bitcoins to "donate" to some other sites. Expect more sites to spring up now that paying for things becomes easier and harder to control.
As usual, the accelerated evolution by the futile effort to cling onto a dated business model will only hasten their demise.

It took them an absolute age to sort out support for 64bit windows which put me right off them.
