Digital Music News: The MegaUpload Shutdown Hasn't Reduced File-Trading at All...
‘In the moments immediately following the MegaUpload shutdown, global internet traffic dipped an astounding 2-3 percent. Unfortunately for the feds, that didn't last for long. According to an assessment recently published by DeepField Networks, file-trading volumes basically returned to 'normal' as rival services started picking up the slack. So, same volumes, less snappiness and cost-efficient delivery, at least in the short term. Or, maybe the long-term, depending on how over-the-top this anti-piracy enforcement campaign grows. But does that mean the shutdown was essentially useless? Outside of file-trading volumes and routing details, the 'ripple-effect' of policy changes and shutdowns is getting a lot of attention. Most recently, the shut-and-run list includes BitTorrent tracking giant BTjunkie, with others likely to follow.’

Reflecting on his newly self-released $5 internet-only special. ‘I learned that money can be a lot of things. It can be something that is hoarded, fought over, protected, stolen and withheld.

And it can be shuffled and pushed around and pooled together to fuel a common interest, jokes about garbage, penises and parenthood.’
