Okay, once again, this online free download site, (if you want faster speed, you might need to pay up some fees,) mega upload is officially banned from government, and many users might have stored their back up files, like music, documents or videos up there, but now, it is unlikely to unlock it. Too bad, some people might share those copyrighted content up t here, and now everybody has suffer with a few of those culprits. So, from my recommendation, you might want to back up some of your important files, like documents or audio files in your own back up external drive instead of online free space. For instance, iCloud might be one of them too. Once the authority find out there were copyrighted content, they might ban the whole website, so even though those innocents might also be affected.

I have read the news a couple of times, I never felt pity for them but instead amazes and respected them, they have proven that there is really money ONLINE, there is no doubt about it, and the future really rely on the web. Even if they had successfully shut down the site, there more sites and much of them are actually operating now, too bad there no super police that can actually outnumber theses geeks.

yeah.. I have read the news and also seen the site.. it's really tough for those who had rely on megaupload site.. well I had also kept few documents and folder over there as a backup.. though most of them are there with me in local drive too but now I think it's not good practice to use such sites as backup.. not atleast for important files.. nice discussion you have started..

Yeah I heard all about it. The owners of the site their houses were RIDICULOUS. It was like this big mansion and they had amazing cars and even giraffes in their backyard. It's so crazy when you come to think about it, that they earned so much money making this website. I was all jealous when I saw their house, it took my breath away. Literally. I think it's stupid they get arrested though. I don't know too much about it, but still, I think it's a little bit stupid.
