Domain

i'm sorry if this was already mentioned somewhere, but whats with the old
domain of eztv?.i know they changed to a new one recently, but did the staff
sell the old one or something, 'cause it now seems to be nothing more than a
spam site, or was it just simply lost or forgotten during domain tranfers and
recreated by someone as such.'cause who ever owns it, it must now be generating
plenty of ad revenue.

yeah, well, those "donkeys" are probably making thousands from web
hits from all those "poor saps" who are still looking for the site, and i'm
sure it'll be awhile before the clicks die down.,'till then who ever owns it is
swimming in gold.

yeah, thats whats i was thinking, but i mean really, they should've kept the
name and the money it would've brang in, unless they did infact sell it for
tons.

well, no contact info on site, but according to the overview at alexa.com, the
site belongs to "novaking"(alexa.com/data/details/main/eztvefnet.org)...don't
know if thats recent info, but makes you think.maybe an admin could adresse
this?.

i know, but if they own it that means they are making profit(which shouldn't be
such an evil thing), otherwise why not just redirect to current site so all
those "poor saps" could be directed to the right place instead of making money
for someone else?.

i don't know, i don't know who owns it or if they sold it, i'm just wondering.

that would be i.

ok, so your saying it was simply lost and is just being held as spam?, so what
are you going to do if/when you get it back...

umm, ok..., 'cause i was thinking more like selling it for all its worth to the
highest bidder.but i guess if they are to noble for that, they can just keep it
for nothing or give it to someone who is willing to cash in on their success.

but really, is this site really entirely voluntary?, i mean, running such a
popular site for free must cost a fortune, and its bordering on foolishness not
to put just *one* *little* banner here and their to atleast recoup apart of
ther costs, would anyone really mind?.

or i guess they really are just
millonaires and just feel like giving back to society, in which case nevermind.

admin : what was this one? why empty?

we put a lot of money into this site and we never ask anything in return, we
have been doing it for over two years now. in regards to the domain, it has a
rather long story behind it, and we prefer if we didn't explain it (hence why we
currently don't say anything any time someone asks).

why do we do what we do? because we believe in what we do.

sure, thats very noble, just saying for most people there always has to be
something beneficial, but i admire your charity.

well, all i know is you specifically are still listed as
owner(alexa.com/data/details/main/eztvefnet.org), so if you don't
care to elaborate thats fine.

yeah, i suppose it is.you know what else, according to you, would be just as
wrong?.getting credit and respect from distribution of stuff you didn't make.so
making money would be a bonus, it wouldn't make it more wrong.

your wrong on those points.your right, eztv isn't very involved in what it
distributes, which means it isn't very important for what its doing.

torrents are freely avilable on so many other places on the web, mind you with
plenty of ads, but still, people would have no trouble finding somewhere else
to dl them, so no, its not like people would be lost if it suddenly shutdown.
