MV/Liberace!

i suspect they'll be back in some capacity.  it's hard to put a lid on these things.

Man I hope so. I rely on them for a number of radio shows. It's like being cut off from the world!!

(that bird probably feasted on the other's entrails)

It did say something at the end of that article about the actual management being located in Mexico so... I'm sure they can set up again in some other country that currently doesn't give a fuck... cept the servers got seized so... I guess people have to re-submit their existing torrents?? I've always just been a leech mostly... like I would share for a day or so after I DL'd but I wasn't like actively uploading things... TPB is my only backup but like i sed... the demon was my best source for everything C2C and they had much better hacked software too... gonna miss the lil devil while he's down...

So many HowardTV torrents.  Gone.

So many Opie and Anthony shows.  Gone.

So many Art Bell Shows.  Gone.

Possibly forever.

I can't believe it.

Yep, and losing the searchable database of almost every Art Bell show blows.

no.  i'm sure that data was all getting backed up regularly and stored offsite in multiple locations.  demonoid has certainly seen what's happened to other file sharing operations, and i'd be shocked if they didn't make preparations for something like this.

Well technically demonoid was only housing the tracking stuff and related torrent info not the actual shared data, correct?  Like if I stole the latest batman movie using demonoid then technically I'm just getting the directions to connect to people that are currently sharing said batman movie... demonoid was just a third party facilitator. 

I liked Mr. Banana's appearance on that last trainwreck show I heard him on... He'd be a good addition to the spec sheet.  I still want HAL to make an appearance to talk about his pro-stalking skills as well as techno-knowledge.

HAL 9000

I knew going in it would be intensive, but turned into a freakish nightmare. Again, while I appreciate the enormous work funklobaldy put into his c2c archive, because he did not use a standard naming convention (he used ~8-10),  none of the files would show up on your computer (once downloaded) in chronological order.

Until now.

I've spent a number of hours going through a few thousand folders/files, and have, at least, straightened them out so there is some modicum of order. It is by no means perfect, but will do. If I were creating my own archive, maybe I'd spend more time to make it perfect, but I'm burned out trying to fix someone else's mess (for free anyway ;) ).

So you can view the entire file list at the link below - I sampled a few, and they sound pretty interesting, though quality varies with very old shows.

These shows are from the "Deep Archive" section.

Now all I need to do is upload them somewhere... :o :o :o

Demonoid's response came early Tuesday after a recent crack down on their activity.

They're shooting for the moon.  At first thought to be a mere internet rumor, it appears Demonoid is working with Elon Musk at SpaceX on a moon-shot and robotic set up of a moon-stationed server by 2015.

"In space, no one can stop your torrent," said the confidential source affiliated with Demonoid's admin.

"At first, we were thinking of a man-made satellite, but a server on the moon?  It seems so appropriate somehow.  Can they shoot a missile and take it out?  Sure. Will they? Doubtful. That would create an international stink. No one owns the moon, though I'm sure they think they do. Also, some kind of moon-based signal might order the missile to U-turn home.  That would be nasty. Encoded signals are unpredictable that way. The missiles are probably set up on Facebook, which would make them that much easier to hack.  Look, here I am getting my tail fins waxed and my nosecone buffed for better trajectory. Like me.  Fuck you.

"You want to play Russian missile roulette like that?  Trying to take us down just because someone calling himself "Ziznak" is downloading Prometheus 3? Where the fuck has everyone's sense of proportion gone? Up Donald Duck's feathered ass?"

When asked about any resemblance to Robert A. Heinlein's The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, he was quick to point out a major difference. 

"I can see a small comparison there.  But we're not talking about colonization. We simply want a secure home for our equipment.  A home that can't be stomped on at the whim of whatever administration happens to be in charge at the moment.  But that is an excellent book.  I recommend it to anyone concerned about governmental interference and how to handle it. That and The Prisoner series.  Fucking-A."

When asked for more specifics concerning the recent shut down, he would not elaborate.

"Come try to take our shit now. It's going to be a lot more difficult."

SpaceX was contacted but has not responded.

Demonoid may be down for the count. A three headed hit - Cyber Attack, Ukrainian authorities confiscating data and this from of all places Mexico.

i wouldn't have a google plus account if it weren't for the fact that you need it to do the hangouts.

More bad new for my beloved Demonoid.

but then some good news

Anonymous’ longer-term goal is restoring Demonoid by asking members to host mirror sites across the world, creating what the group called in a release an “open-source Demonoid.”

No doubt now that anonymous is getting involved we could actually see a new demonoid.  I wonder if they plan on aiming that low orbit Ion cannon at anybody for bringing the green-boy down in the first place?
