I can't believe I never noticed the The Music And Film Industry Association of America is so close to the Mafia. It makes sense, I guess. With the odd name it seems almost as if that was their intention though.
Yeah mininova has been ditching trackers since they first got slapped in May. Same with ISOhunt. Trackers go up and down constantly on those sites. The thing is, with mininova anyway someone puts up a copyright tracker and let say it takes 24hrs for them to find it. By then, depending on the popularity of the file 1-5000 people may already be seeding it.
For example a new video game hits launch, or a TV show finishes airing. Those torrents go up very quickly and people search for a few days. They just need to hit the tracker once and start downloading. Once they are grabbing it, the existence of that tracker no longer matters.
For trackers that do get taken down and it's been happening a lot on mininova someone puts them backup again. Now that this court ruling is final I would imagine things will get tighter, but Mininova is far from kaput.
