But let's say it did happen. If I were in a position of power at allofmp3, I'd get the Russian goverment to pay me off, move the servers and operations to Kazakhstan, and keep on trucking.
I used to use allofmp3.com - it was good, no problems with CC. Until I found bit torrent - I just downloaded every CD ever released by Billy Joel, Elton John, Dr Dre, and the Beatles. It took a week but it was worth it and free. Artists should earn their living by playing live, as used to happen until the 1950s. Being paid for recorded music was an aberration now coming to an end.
