The Future Of The Pirate Bay

Posted by austinreynolds on July 6, 2009

A little over a week ago, we found out that the guys that made The Pirate Bay are most likely going to jail.  However, the website isn’t just going to die. The Pirate Bay is being purchased by a company called Global Gaming Factory X.  Global Gaming Factory X is planning on making the site 100% legal.  They said to make the site legal, they will be paying the developers of the games that get downloaded.  It is not yet known how they will get the money to pay those developers.  The CEO of Global Gaming Factory X said this in a statement,.

“The Pirate Bay is a site that is among the top 100 most visited Internet sites in the world. However, in order to live on, The Pirate Bay requires a new business model, which satisfies the requirements and needs of all parties, content providers, broadband operators, end users, and the judiciary.”
