MEGA

Kim Dotcom Announces Resurrection of MegaUpload

Kim Schmitz, notoriously known as Kim DotCom, has announced a new domain for his new file-sharing service Mega. The new site is presumed to be a sequel to MegaUpload and is claimed to be “100% legal.” The website is due to be up January 20th 2012, a year after his initial arrest. In January of 2012 MegaUpload, the #1 file sharing website, was seized by the FBI and charged as a massive piracy operation. Seven company managers including Kim DotCom were charged with criminal copyright violations, conspiracy, money laundering and wire fraud. Though they denied any wrongdoing the MegaUpload managers were detained and thrown in jail. Kim’s assets were seized and his family was booted out of his home. Kim and other defendants had since then won a series of favorable decisions in New Zealand courts and were released on bail. The U.S. says Kim DotCom swore under oath he would not attempt to resurrect MegaUpload or a similar file sharing service as an agreement to bail. It seems though Kim is taking advantage of a loophole, and because of the wording in his statement he is able to start up another file sharing service from scratch without explicitly contradicting the oath. Ira Rothken, the attorney overseeing MegaUpload’s worldwide defense says the U.S. is clutching at straws (in essence hopelessly trying to find a way to persecute Kim of breaking his oath) over Kim’s announcement.
There is no realistic prospect or possibility of restoring the business or recommencing the business having regard to both the seizure of the requisite servers and data storage equipment and to the seizure of all funds, monies and assets held both by Megaupload and by me personally… Until the merits of the US government’s charges against me and my co-defendants, as well as the company, have been determined there is no ability, let alone financial incentive available to me, to try to continue to operate the business as is alleged.
As Ira states “any new technology business started from scratch such as Me.ga does not appear to be addressed in the affidavit which was specific to Megaupload as the ‘business as is alleged.’” It appears Kim takes the opportunity to poke fun at the FBI a few times through his Twitter account as well. Earlier this week he tweeted “Countdown on Kim.com ends in 1 hour. Expect our new Mega domain and a splash page with information.” After a few retweets Kim DotCom mentioned his servers being overloaded from people flocking over to the site to see what the buzz was about. Shortly after he tweeted “All the FBI agents pressing reload hahaha…We see their IP address. LOL!!!” His Twitter feed reported his servers were continuing to take a hit as fans and journalists alike rushed over to the site to find out what all the buzz was about. Soon after the announcement was made. “The new #Mega domain is me.ga-Check it out. RT!!” Though Kim DotCom seems to have taken a clear advantage of this loophole the U.S. is not innocent of abusing them as well. Back during the downfall of MegaUpload Kim Dotcom grew in popularity, marked as the internet martyr and winning the crowd in defiance of the empire. He even went as far as releasing a music video with music icons Will.i.am, Chris Brown, P. Diddy and Kanye West in profession of their love for MegaUpload. The biggest public-relations exploit was undoubtedly Kim DotCom’s picture with Steve Wozniak, co-founder of of Apple. For the skeptics, Wozniak made it clear what he thought of the situation in an exclusive email interview with CNET. What makes Mega different from MegaUpload? For starters, individual files uploaded will now have an encrypted key to it which users are allowed to distribute at their own discretion. Rather than password protected folders each and every file will have its own key. In essence users have keys to their “lockers” of files. Kim DotCom states content owners may even have access to the files their users upload, as long as they agree to not hold MegaUpload responsible for anything copyrighted. Being exempt from these responsibilities and making the files public to those that release the keys makes it possible for Mega to be a 100% legal site, with all legal responsibilities being in the hands of the users. Kim DotCom has also committed to keeping his servers out of the U.S. and avoiding business with hosts in its territories. The domain .ga is based out of the African country Gabon. Kim mentions that going through Africa should provide further protection for file sharing users from the FBI. Hollywood lost over 500 million dollars in copyright infringement due to MegaUpload. As compared to how much they make with inflating prices and extensive advertisement one may assume that to be small comparatively. Kim DotCom has the people on his side along with notable celebrities and CEO’s alike. The DOJ faces what might be a legitimate threat to their policies, and ultimately the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and the events that lie ahead of us may potentially turn the tide in the U.S.’ efforts to enforce antipiracy laws. What side are you on? Let us know what you think!

Mucha poder este batero. La verdad se zarpa.

personalmente no me gustan las bandas y/o bateros que se abusan del doble bombo, para mi es una herrmienta mas que es clave en algunos momentos pero no para abusar, me quedo con este:

[Zemarko]

Supongo que el estilo mucho no te va no? Si, puede que abuse, para mi no es la palabra, pero es cuestion de gustos, no?

Lindo batero eh! Y la canción no se queda atrás tampoco

[krougar]

No solo el batero, la banda, justamente el disco ese (que estoy escuchando en este momento), Lateralus, esta compuesto con proporciones áureas (sucesión de fibonacci) hasta las estrofas voces y compases de bateria, incluso el orden de las canciones, va mas aya de solo lo musical.

krougar el tema que linkio Zemarko tiene un estilo diferente al de tu video, seria injusto comparar el estilo, se puede decir que el ¨abuso de doble pedal¨ en esa cancion esta correcto porque ese estilo lo requiere.
el estilo hardcore tambien ¨abusa del doble pedal¨ porque es su ritmo base caracteristico.


No hay una regla que diga que siempre tiene que ser asi pero sirve la mayoria de las canciones y asi suenar como una buena cancion de ¨Ese estilo¨, lo mismo pasa con el ska, rock, metal, reggae, cumbia etc.

[krougar]

No, escucha PanterA y decime si el gordo viny abusa del doble pedal? y no me vengas con domination o algun tema por el estilo, escucha la placa reinventing the steel, igual puse "personalmente" para mi un buen batero es el que usa todos los elementos en forma equilibrada, cosa que traspolo a cualquier músico. Me gusta mas lo que hace zemarko con su banda que ese video, me parece mas rico musicalmente, pero SON GUSTOS.
