I know many people disagree with me, I know people do not accept this line of arguments... but, it is a FACT that the pirate bay has existed for years and years and years. It will continue to exist for years until laws are enacted that make it illegal. Why would I sit here and not try to make money with a site that is costing me money?

We have found a way to make some money back from the pirate bay while they continue to have content of ours on their site. Do we DMCA the content, of course we do. But why would I sit here and cry and cry and cry about the evil pirate bay and not try to get some money back?! Your only argument is that we pay them money. If we would not pay them money, they would make money otherwise, or possibly even not care and still won't close, so why let anyone else profit from our content instead if we can do so ourselves?!
