At a guess, it got a takedown notice from one or more of the publishers that object to that sort of thing, and what you see now is the default income generator for that website host. The owner of that domain posts here sometimes, so maybe he will give further details.

I saw a post in another thread that the site is down - if my brain remembers correctly Random House, or some major publisher - hit it with a take down notice.

That's what you get for advertising pirate sites in forums like this. I wonder if Random House (assuming it was they) will go after such sites with as much zeal as Marvel Comics did when it launched its digital editions.
