This is a sad decision and demonstrates the power corporations have over decisions in other countries where they should have no power. I like the fact the pirate bay exists, just because it acts as a catalyst, speeding up the move to the Internet and slaps the RIAA, MPAA in the face.
Corporations have been extending and fortifying copyright for years and paying artists a tiny amount of the overall price for copyrighted material. They just want profit and don't care who gets hurt in the path to that profit, consumers, culture, artists. The recording industry just wants to continue charging $15 for a CD and giving the artist $0.60 out of that. They want to move that model to the internet and aren't compfortable with any attacks on copyright.
