After losing their case, the courts have ordered Mininova to remove all the links to copyright content or pay a fine of 5 million euros.
The court did not agree with Mininova’s defense that it is impossible to moderate all torrents that are uploaded to the site but furtthermore said that Mininovafurthermore is encouraging its users to download copyrighted material.
With sites like MininovaMininova and The Pirate Bay going down we can expect their competitors to become more and more popular until someone takes them down too.
