Records Labels Prepare Massive 'Pirate Site' Domain Blocking Blitz 110
An anonymous reader writes "In their ongoing battle against websites said to infringe music copyrights, record labels have initiated a fresh wave of actions aimed at forcing UK ISPs to carry out domain blocking. This third wave is set to be the biggest so far, affecting as many as 25 domains and including some of the world's largest torrent sites and file-hosting search engines. Furthermore, the BPI – the entity coordinating the action – will ask courts to block U.S.-based music streaming operation, Grooveshark."

As do I - I'd tell you where I keep that list (and a backup copy of it), but I don't feel like summoning APK.

Full disclosure, I'm listening to Taylor Swift right now. That's right, I just called myself dumb and am admitting to listening to "Trouble" by Taylor Swift.
Please mod parent down and parent's parents should be modded down too for allowing this to happen.
Do people still pirate music? (Score:2, Funny)
I stopped pirating music years ago. I use rdio now... $10/month for (almost) all the music I want.
I figured pirating music would have more-or-less disappeared by now.
