Watch out, Hollywood -- another threat to your profits appears to be setting sail and headed in your direction. A site called The Video Bay aims to make pirated TV shows and Hollywood movies available in hi-def quality for streaming through your Web browser -- no hefty downloads required. The site, reportedly in development by the people behind the controversial site The Pirate Bay, is aiming to compete with Hulu and YouTube. As far as I can tell, the new venture isn't bothering with any cumbersome legal issues such as copyrights and content licences.

First of all, they're not actually in prison yet, I think it's a couple of weeks yet. There's more people involved than just the owners running the site, most of it is automated but there's a lot of people behind the scenes who weren't involved in the court case. Originally Posted by lHuntey

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a venture too far which will make them bankrupt or in prison for even longer.
TPB is way over-rated anyway, there's better out there.
