Facilitation of copyright infringment…?!? that’s their argument ? Come on men..!! i can’t believe it… there’s no way linking is illegal, not a chance. that would make us all pirates. why don`t they shut down you tube or google. If that’s the case, I’m sure Google is the biggest “facilitator” of the world… ha ha ha but i’m taking all this in a real cool way, cause i found in sidereel the fountain that calms my thirst for tv series and movies..! LOL so that you can be calm too, here goes the link http://www.sidereel.com Oh, no..!! i just linked and facilitated piracy..!! who’s gonna protect me now..?? ha ha ha and there’s also stage 6 or Dailymotion, ups… I did it again…! ;)

Please check out this site I have made:
http://www.save-tv-links.co.uk

The idea behind the site is to create a publicly accessible resource of accurate information on the tv-links case and create a discussion forum around it. It also exists to offer what ever support is possible to give to the innocent.

Anyone who can contribute or has any ideas that would make this site more functional please get in touch; the aim is too get as much information in one place as possible.

I think it was a bad move to shut down tv links. What do people do who don’t live in America and have no access to shows? I am currently living in Japan and I would use tv links to watch the shows that I can’t see over here. I did use tv links when I was in America for shows that I could not find anywhere else. With some of the shows I watched all of the episodes were not online. I got a taste of what the show was like and then went out and bought it. I am not going to drop $30+or a box sex if I am not even sure if I like the show. I can’t see how these companies don’t realize that these sites can be good for business. I am sure I am not the only one who has gone out and bought a dvd after seeing it on tv links. I will miss tv links but there are other sites out there.

People will find another way. It’s ignorant for these media companies to think it will stop by shutting down these sites.

Beside they are incredibly stupid for doing so. I can’t tell you how many shows I’ve started to watch on regular television after giving them a try on TV-Links. There is no substitute for the real thing so people are always going to watch regular tv.

Where they are actually losing money is by shutting these sites down and people without the time or concern won’t give their regular television shows a try anyways. It doesn’t make sense to me.

Its rediculous, many more will take its place. Shutting down the site doesnt remove the demand.

Agreed, the content distribution industry is changing rapidly with technology. This is a fine indicator that people do want to watch TV on the internet. Big corporations get the picture, they are just slow. If you need another TV Links site to go to, try going to http://tvlinksdb.com.
