The Pirate Bay is apparently up for sale, and if it ends up being purchased by Global Gaming Factory X the new owners intend to implement a new system that will appease copyright holders while still appealing to the Pirate Bay's die hard clientele. In effect it will legalise the Pirate Bay.
The new system will effectively require users to pay a monthly subscription to gain access to licensed content from copyright holders. Alternatively, when infringing content is found copyright holders will have the choice of having the content taken down or receiving an undisclosed sum of money.
A benefit of the new system would be that the quality of files would be assured. Similarly it would allow copyright holders to receive some payment for a practice that will continue with or without the Pirate Bay.
Watch this space.
