Everybody on the net is laughing at that claim. I guess they finally realise they are not going to win, so might as well declare victory and go home.
PS. I wonder what they thing about firefox bittorrent client plug in.
yeah i heard that hiphopdirectory.com actually owns and has been running hiphopweekly.com for a few years now.
i wonder how that is going to work out or if they are even going to sell it?
this should be interesting since hiphopdirectory.com has a huge following in the likes of sohh.com and allhiphop.com in the hip-hop game.
if anyone know anything about it, hit us up.
