Russia agrees to shut down Allofmp3.com

>>Except that it was a) illegal* and b) did not seek nor obtain permission from the copyright holders, nor compensate the non-Russian artists.

If you're actually concerned for the artists then its really splitting hairs. From an illegal website they get nothing, from a legal site they get very little more than that.

Also, I do really really like keeping money from the RIAA.

I really don't see a strong moral angle to it. The whole system is broken.
