I am furious. And disappointed. And sad. Because I just received bad news : AllOfMP3 will shut down. Apparently the russian government has bent over and took it from behind :

The document specifically names AllofMP3.com as an example of the types of Web sites that they will shut down. We contacted AllofMP3.com and the company sent us an official statement stating their legality. It says that the company has offered to remove illegal music at the copyright holders' requests.(Link)

Terrible. But the internet is bigger than russia, so maybe they will simply move to another country and continue.
