Easytree Shut Down for Good
Just got this email...........
Hello gals and guys,
We're very sorry having to tell you that we had to shut down EZT
forever just a couple of minutes ago.
We got a call from our provider, they had received a few letters
from a couple of lawyers. They requested EZT to be shut down
immediately, otherwise we'd be sued.
As you may imagine, we do not have the funds to fight a battle we
most probably can't win anyway.
We would like to thank everyone here for their contributions to EZT,
one way or the other, for sharing the music, sharing an ideal, for
all your mails, rants, praises...
I'm sorry, I'm still too shocked to write on... maybe later I'll
find some more words or my collegues will do...
To say it with Joan Armatrading:
We had fun, fun, fun, fun
fun, fun, fun, fun
we had fun -- while it lasted...
--"Tall in the Saddle"--
You all take good care!

Oh, man. I come back from vacation (where I was incommunicado, as far as the internet's concerned) and find this. Although I've only been a member of the site for a month or two, I really liked it a lot. Snagged some great John Wesley Harding shows. Bummer.

Best place to get shows,what a shame 
You can use TTD when it gets back up,whenever that is,or you can check out this place here The Pirate Bay
They cant be shut down due to them not being in the U.S.
They have a page with text formatted emails from people trying to shut them down.Quite entertaining.The best is from DreamWorks...

As you may or may not be aware, Sweden is not a state in the United States
of America. Sweden is a country in northern Europe.
Unless you figured it out by now, US law does not apply here.
For your information, no Swedish law is being violated.
Please be assured that any further contact with us, regardless of medium,
will result in
a) a suit being filed for harassment
b) a formal complaint lodged with the bar of your legal counsel, for
sending frivolous legal threats.
It is the opinion of us and our lawyers that you are fucking morons, and
that you should please go sodomize yourself with retractable batons.
Please also note that your e-mail and letter will be published in full on

Go fuck yourself.
Polite as usual,

That's a bummer, I got quite a few shows from there including some really good Ben Harper shows. A lot of the bands that had shows on Easytree also have shows on http://www.archive.org/audio/etree.php

As far as I can tell, it's Easytree at a new location. My old login and password still work.
So happy!
