From ThePirateBay.com

Today a new version was launched by The Pirate Bay, the world's largest BitTorrent tracker and one of Sweden's largest web sites. With revolutionary code and layout, the new Pirate Bay is considerably faster and more user friendly than the earlier version. Furthermore, the site has been internationalized and now features support for ten languages in addition to English.
- The user friendliness and new functionalities of The Pirate Bay 2.0 will introduce the BitTorrent protocol to the wide public. Contrary to the large media corporations, we regard the diffusion of new technologies to as many people as possible as an important duty, says Fredrik Neij of The Pirate Bay.
Aside from the new code and layout, The Pirate Bay has undergone an extensive internationalization. The site features support for ten languages in addition to English and our translators are continually working on more. Users from any of the eleven language communities will automatically get the official language of their country as preset standard.
- Today the development often moves faster in technology than in the cultural realm. But neither language barriers nor the copyright industry's war on technology should impede people from partaking in new technologies and cultures, says anakata of The Pirate Bay.
Furthermore, a new system of categories will make searching easier and more effective. In the near future this will imply more options for subscribers to the tracker's RSS flows. And The Pirate Bay team of developers are constantly working on new functionalities to improve the lives of users all over the world.

Seriously, thepiratebay's new site is great. And I love their logo. And their basketball sized nuts for providing the service they have.

Thats all I gotta say.

I love the pirate bay - it's the first place I check out for torrents, and what I always recommend to other people. And, the new 2.0 version is far beyond what the old version was - might have to "force" myself to download a few other torrents

New legal threat and their response... http://thepiratebay.org/legal.php



> IMMEDIATELY REMOVE ALL TORRENT FILES OF BILLY CORGAN's UNRELEASED
> MATERIAL PLANNED FOR RELEASE ON WARNER BROS. RECORDS, INC. THE
> FOLLOWING LINK AND ALL BILLY CORGAN DOWNLOADS MUST BE COMPLETELY
> REMOVED:
>
> http://thepiratebay.org/search.php?q=billy+corgan




Sorry, but I can't remove search.php - our users would get upset if TPB
suddenly lacked a search function.
The problem here seems to be that the material is unreleased? If that is
the case, you can easily fix the problem by releasing it. We'll be more
than glad to help you distribute it - free of charge! - to our users.


Can't help but smile when I read this crap!! :)

GTA all the way! Cool idea with the picture link on the homepage and I also like the top100. Make sure your getting the most active torrent! Also, it's in ENGLISH so that helps too! Good report jorge, well done Pirate Bay! Keep the funny threat letters responses coming!
