I've actually found 3 other large-ish sites (since LokiTorrent/Suprnova/Torrentbits ate it) that offer what they had, and more. The MPAA, RIAA, and whoever else are fighting an extremely uphill battle, imo.
Plus, the shutting down of these sites really wasn't legal. None of the offending files, part or in whole were on the afformentioned sites' webspaces. That's the way BT works. Come on, shutting down mere trackers is way too invasive. Either way, I suppose since they don't have the time or whatever go to after every individual user that used LokiTorrent's tracker, logic would dictate that you shut down LokiTorrent itself to stem the tide of distribution. (Right. Lol.)
My two cents.
