The Pirate Bay's "Music Bay" is 'coming soon'

The Pirate Bay's "Music Bay" is 'coming soon' A few years ago, the infamous torrent tracker The Pirate Bay registered The Music Bay domain, but did nothing with it.
It appears now, however, The Music Bay is well on its way to becoming a reality and TF says the record industry should be "very afraid" of its presence.

The subdomain fear.themusicbay.org has been displaying a "coming soon" headline recently, with no other details.

TF spoke with a Pirate Bay 'insider' who said:

The music industry can’t even imagine what we’re planning to roll out in the coming months. For years they’ve complained bitterly about piracy, but if they ever had a reason to be scared it is now. It will be a special surprise for IFPI’s 78th birthday, and we’re thinking of organizing a huge festival in Rome where IFPI was founded.




The IFPI, one of the major music trade groups in the world, will turn 78 in April.
