Downrevolution.net shut down by Italian police.
My ability to read Italian is non-existant but if you head to the Downrevolution site it has clearly been shutdown with a large semi-official notice on the site, as best I can tell, from the Rvenue Officer that states the site has been confined for violations.

This popular muisc file-sharing site, downrevolution.net, was shutdown by Italian police who also arrested 4 alleged operators. These four individuals now face potential prison time up to three years and fins in the amount of $23K. Plus other administrative santions into the hundreds of thousands of euros.

Will this be a trend to be seen as the UK announced their desire to make file-sharing leagal in the near future? Got to clean up the mess before laying down legislation. Don't you?
