well like anything, when certain hosts abandon their service their customers flee to other hosts. I'm sure some of them are going to try to ride it out as long as they can because that means epic cash.

Just look at hotfile, they never responded to dmca until it became shitcan crazy. They got slammed pretty hard with some lawsuits for site rips. You can see the trend.


By that time they had so much money that they started deleting everything and then no one complained anymore. They were so popular that many people were too stupid to know any better and kept using them.
It was simply business.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this all works out though.
