What the topic title does not tell you: the site offers free music downloads, seemingly.

Waaaah, it's all the pirates fault, not because our music sucks ass!

Seriously this is getting really lame now. Everyone should now threaten their ISPs to terminate their contract with them if they do no unblock the site. It's supposed to be the World Wide Web. Not the Approved World Wide Web. If you don't like what's on it, please, get a shotgun, and blow your head off. Thank you! ;p

How many of you can actually go there? I can't.

"Could not connect to remote server"

I'm going to bookmark it, and try again once I'm on the university's internet. Not really any songs I want right now, I just want to see what it is that the recording industry is so scared of.

Question though: how many of you had heard of it before this story? I mean, they're drawing a lot more attention to it this way. And I'm sure there are still a lot of people who can get to it.

Cloral: exactly. I didn't know about it until now. And I am not curious. Esp. as I can still view it, in Canada. :D

Can't translate it, mind...

I can get to it, but there's nothing on the site, It just says under construction.

Perhaps china shot the guy who owned the site or china shut it down itself. Lot of good blocking it does now. heh.
