The Pirate Bay continues to impress me. First they got old skool Torrent Tracker Suprnova back up and running and now they plan to do the same to OiNK which fell dead last week. The Piratebay plans to call the replacement to OiNK! as BOiNK which i guess means a bigger and a better OiNK.

BOiNK is an attempt to bring the hundreds of thousands of music albums back online that disappeared during the raid. The replacement will be released within a week and should be available on the BOiNK.cd domain.

Things are moving pretty fast on Torrent Space and I believe that the Pirate Bay are doing a good job at keeping the MPAA, RIAA, IFPI, BPI at bay. Things are gonna be a little different at BOiNK, the most important thing will be that it will be a public tracker rather than the private tracker that OiNK really was. Well that means we’re going to see a lot of people leeching the torrents and polluting the Torrent Sphere.

Well I am sure you have read about the shutdown of Oink by the IFPI and BPI a few days back here on dailyApps.

Here are a few answers that I lifted directly from the IRC logs from here.
