This story was out last week but there are now 6 confirmed arrests over it, in the UK.
Oink.cd is the site it relates to and basically 6 people have been arrested regarding sharing pre-release music.

It's a lottery.
Id imagine it wont be long before supertorrents.org is hit with the same thing.
I doubt it'll stop us millions of downloaders.

supertorrents is a priv tracker, so will be safe for a while, but its also quite publicly known. its the under cover sites that are best for leaching and will be able to evade the big bad lawyer men

Its a huge dodgy. Interested to see what they were arested for as you can't be arested for Copyright infringement you can only be taken to court
