bouche Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 I went to Suprnova today and they are now charging for memberships. I use the site ALL the time, so I don't really see a problem donating $30.00 for lifetime (I think) membership. However, someone at work brought up the fact that it's possible only a few people will pay and then your torrent links would not have that many seeds/downloaders. Any thoughts? Is anyone going to pay? I can't live without my Suprnova! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatpatguy Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 are you sure you went to suprnova.org and not suprnova.com or suprnove.net by accident? I was on suprnova.org this morning and saw nothing about pay.. I know that suprnova.com looks the same.. but it's pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 It's a risky move on their part, especially when you consider what exactly their content is. The money will be obviously used to maintain the service whose server costs are probably skyrocketing, but it's a double-edged sword because now Suprnova will most likely show up on the RIAA's radar, and we might see the demise of Bit Torrent just like Napster before it. Your point about less seeds is also valid. I won't be paying for no membership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weezy Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 bouche - thatphatguy is probably right, suprnova.org is the one you want - they call suprnova.com and suprnova.net scammers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
