The Russian government signed an agreement with the US government to close down the Russian half-pirate/half-legal online music store AllOfMp3.com

AllOfMp3.com fell into a weird category of ‘we actually pirate MP3’s but sell them through a supposedly legit online store and still claim it’s a legitimate business’, so I guess noone will be really sorry about this.

According to this document, in which allofmp3.com is explicitly named as a bad example, Russia has agreed to ‘fight Internet piracy’ and ‘fight optical disc piracy’ (yay for magnetic disc piracy - ed.).
