No.

Whats the difference between watching movies or TV shows?

you can always find a putlocker link for tv Shows

When you exceed the limit on Putlocker it's for the day regardless of what you do.

When you exceed the limit on Megavideo you reboot your router

Well there goes my premium membership. RIP Megaupload. Enjoyed many years of quality downloading and movie watching...

Damn, good thing torrents are save.

Although there's a lot of shit Megaupload had that couldn't be found anywhere.

The finger to you from the 3rd world, music industry

Good night sweet prince

We'll miss you Megaupload xx

RIP Megaupload, Megavideo and Megaporn
If SOPA gets passed,there will be many other big sites to join Megaupload.

Quote from Tumblr:
Hey America, I have a cute idea. At least sort out your health care system, hand gun violence, unemployment, public education, gay marriage, marijuana legislation and middle east conflict before you *bleep* around with the internet because lets face it, there are bigger issues in the world than someone uploading a photo with a musician in it.

Videobb isn't too bad either. Has a decent selection of media (if you know where to look) and it's usually very reliable

Oh ... That explains why a certain site isn't hosting anything from megaupload any longer.

I've been deceived!

As long as uTorrent, Fileserve and Filesonic remains untouched, I'm not too bothered with this news.

I've now spent some time reading the indictment, and if we take the Grand Jury (which would include probable cause and due process) and FBI at good faith for the time being, it seems to me like the members of the "mega conspiracy" have done nothing but be criminally stupid, while earning tons of money on intentionally and willfully infringing on copyrights.
There is more info in the indictment backing up each of these, but you can read for yourselves. Let's take just a few of the statements:
They used MegaUpload as a place to get their own pirated material. Here's one statement of at least tenfolds through the indictment:
> Conspirators have searched the internal database for their associates and themselves so that they may directly access copyright-infringing content on servers leased by the Mega Conspiracy.
They didn't really delete files when they got DMCA and abuse requests:
> 23. [...] During the course of the Conspiracy, the Mega Conspiracy has received many millions of requests (through the Abuse Tool and otherwise) to remove infringing copies of copyrighted works and yet the Conspiracy has, at best, only deleted the particular URL of which the copyright holder complained, and purposefully left the actual infringing copy of the copyrighted work on the Mega Conspiracy-controlled server and any other access links completely intact.
They themselves used it, rather stupidly, to spread infringing material (lots of emails and such through the text):
> Members of the Mega Conspiracy are aware of the way that their sites are actually used by others; have themselves used the systems to upload, as well as reproduce and distribute, infringing copies of copyrighted content; and are aware that they have financially benefitted directly from the infringement of copyrighted works that they are in a position to control.
They did not meet the demands for DMCA safe harbor provisions:
> Internet providers gain a safe harbor under the DMCA from civil copyright infringement suits in the United States if they meet certain criteria. The members of Mega Conspiracy do not meet these criteria because they are willfully infringing copyrights themselves on these systems; have actual knowledge that the materials on their systems are infringing (or alternatively know facts or circumstances that would make infringing material apparent); receive a financial benefit directly attributable to copyright-infringing activity where the provider can control that activity; and have not removed, or disabled access to, known copyright infringing material from servers they control.
They had a register of MD5 hashes of the files and could use them to take down exact copies of what they took down through DMCA or abuse notices, but didn't:
> In addition to copyrighted files, other types of illicit content have been uploaded onto the Megaupload.com servers, including child pornography and terrorism propaganda videos. Members of the Conspiracy have indicated to each other that they can automatically identify and delete such materials on all of their servers by calculating MD5 hash values of known child pornography or other illicit content, searching the system for these values, and eliminating them; in fact, such files with matching hash values have been deleted from the Mega Conspiracy’s servers. Members of the Mega Conspiracy have failed to implement a similar program to actually delete or terminate access to copyright infringing content.
A very serious one: They downloaded quite a lot of YouTube videos, attempting to have a 1:1 copy of YouTube obviously infringing copyright, to bootstrap their MegaVideo service. Here's from page 30 of the indictment:
> h. In approximately April 2006, members of the Mega Conspiracy copied videos directly from Youtube.com to make them available on Megavideo.com.
> i. On or about April 10, 2006, VAN DER KOLK sent an e-mail to ORTMANN asking “Do we have a server available to continue downloading of the Youtube’s vids? … Kim just mentioned again that this has really priority.”
> j. On or about April 10, 2006, VAN DER KOLK sent an e-mail to ORTMANN indicating “Hope [Youtube.com is] not implementing a fraud detection system now… * praying *”
They knowingly rewarded users who uploaded infringing content:
> r. On or about February 5, 2007, VAN DER KOLK sent an e-mail to ORTMANN entitled “reward payments”. Attached to the e-mail was a text file listing the following proposed reward amounts, the Megaupload.com username, and the content they uploaded:
100 USD [USERNAME DELETED] 10+ Full popular DVD rips (split files), a few small porn movies, some software with keygenerators (warez)
100 USD [USERNAME DELETED] 5845 files in his account, mainly Vietnamese content
100 USD [USERNAME DELETED] Popular DVD rips
100 USD [USERNAME DELETED] Some older DVD rips + unknown (Italian serries?) rar files
1500 USD [USERNAME DELETED] known paid user (vietnamese content)
To me, again taking the indictment at good faith, it seems like these guys are pretty much screwed. Not only did they run a file uploading service which can be perfectly legal, but they intentionally did not take the appropriate steps to take down infringing material, and they used it themselves for infringing activities and earned lots of money from it.
They have over 50 different bank accounts, a bunch of nice cars, and so on, which have now been seized as part of the proceeds from the operation. I was hoping for some more juice on the racketeering and money laundering charges, but it's basically just using the money from infringement to buy nice things. No tax evasion and such as far as I can see.
I'm all for copyright reform and I find the current regime lacking, but the law is the law. And most reformists, including myself and actual political entities like the Pirate Party of Sweden, believe there should be copyright protections, albeit limited, on commercial activity.
To me, this action seems pretty damn solid. I'd like to hear why I'm wrong.

i guess the US government doesn't need SOPA or PIPA anymore they can just jail them all with a warrant

videobb and videozer are pretty good too but u have 72 minutes and then u have to wait 60 minutes to watch it again..

Videobb and Videozer both have good security for their 72 minute limit.

Megavideos was BAWS because it was basically unlimited.

Do what i do if you're watching a series; watch a whole episode using one player, then when the limit kicks in on the next episode, simply open up the other player for the episode you were watching, skip to the bit where it cut out on the previous player, and repeat step one using the new player. Keep doing this over and over
