Whilst waiting for their court date some of the pirate bay crew have been giving interviews.

As the trial of ‘The Pirate Bay Four’ comes ever closer, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, aka ‘Anakata’, speaks out on TV news. Dubbed by the report as the brains behind The Pirate Bay, Gottfrid is said to run a site that is ‘the scourge of the film and music industries’. “It’s not stealing, morally or legally” he said.
Now accused of conspiracy to break copyright law, Anakata has decided to speak out about “the battle against greedy corporate America.” He points out that under Swedish law, they have committed no crime as they do not directly transfer any copyright material themselves.

Now that the Pirate Bay trial is drawing ever closer, more and more mainstream news outlets are starting to report on the upcoming case, mostly with heavy anti-piracy bias.

Keep your eyes open for the Cartel spin machine folks, they are probably claiming all p2p sites are making some sort of profit as thats all they understand, hard cash and plenty of it like the politicians they buy off, the reality is that most if not all sites are done for pleasure and fun, the costs involved in operating a major torrent indexing and tracker site like the bay will no doubt be rather substantial  but with the torrent communities help they get by.
