Do they really? Do they pay a fee for each book they have or just a certain amount to each publisher?

Not sure how much this could possibly help, but my friends and I are trying it out because it seems like the only thing we, the general population can do other than be upset and complain

People need to stop worring about "illegal content". Its not like the movie industry is lowering price of movies so more people can buy them thus making more money. Look at netflix, good price for the product, and its doing amazingly well.
The world is driven by greed..., im glad Anonymous responded.

It's still up by direct IP, they just blocked the DNS.
Moderator edit: IP address removed as MegaUpload said it is a fake
The whole idea behind this takedown is stupid, it's like if I rented my car out to people for free and one robbed a bank in it so they arrested me and burned my car.
