Here is an excerpt:
p2pnet : There's a perception that what you do is illegal - that it's in some way against the law. What's your response to that?
mininova : Hosting torrent files and providing a directory of torrent files is 100% legal. Google is indexing warez and serials sites, so does that make their service illegal? Of course not. The technology is completely legal, although it'll take some time for people to get used to new technologies. Remember the first days of audio casettes? The music industry was afraid this would destroy their market, but the opposite was true.
p2pnet : The major movie and music cartels are trying to nail BT sites. Do you expect mininova to eventually be targeted? Or do you have a survival plan?
mininova : We don't suspect mininova to be ever taken down by legal actions. Unlike most BitTorrent sites, we've got a strict copyright policy. And we've got a quite good relationship with companies like Microsoft regarding copyright issues.
