That closely follows a similar action against the Pirate Bay in the region, an approach also being adopted in the UK. This is still a developing situation. Early this morning, Grooveshark SVP Paul Geller told Digital Music News ...

Something Else!
By Tom Johnson Let's look beyond the goofy flutes and whatnot—and the oddly aggressive nature of the song, because it's just so out of character for the nice man. Paul McCartney screwed up “Live And Let Die" in a huge way in my book because of a horrible grammar mistake. It's no wonder the song's so angry, he's mad he wrote such a half-baked line. You know the line, I know you do: “But in this ever-changing world in which ...
