OiNK Shutdown
The music industry needs to learn from this. Yes OiNK was used for piracy but one of the major factors in its success was a total lack of a viable legitimate alternative. OiNK was able to offer a library far greater than its legitimate rivals in better quality with a better interface, faster downloads and above all an enthusiastic music loving community. If the music industry were spend less time prosecuting their customers and instead collaborate and create a site with the catalog, quality and convenience of OiNK i would happily pay a £20 or £30 monthly subscription, far more than i ever spent on CD’s before OiNK.
