Interesting developments at one of the largest porn torrent sites on the net. Targetpoint, an Israeli advertising company took over Empornium, changed the design and locked out the former site admins. Just a couple of days ago Empornium’s redesign was introduced and some site features (signup and search engine) have been made pay-only. Due to these changes some admins and contributors left empornium and moved to a new site called cheggit.net. In the meanwhile there’s a battle on wikipedia on both the empornium and the targetpoint page. Targetpoint is an active player in the bittorrent community, it provides ads for mininova for example, and a targetpoint reseller has a 37% share in The Piratebay. This is fine because Targetpoint provides these sites with the means to grow. |

Anyways, I like the new colourful design of E and hope for new changes and improvments as long as the general overall use of it stays the same I'm happy.
As for it going to a "pay site" if you look on the main page it says quite clearly that E will always be free, the cost only goes to NEW users UNTIL the new owners are able to get enough to upgrade the servers and improvement costs. So the "pay" thing is only a temporary thing!
