Knew the time was coming but sad all the same.

Several reports that Giganews and several of the other top usenet providers have started to get removal orders from some postings. At the moment seems to effect some films and most of the latest 360 games. Posts have generally been removed a week or so after posting.

I guess the issue being it got to easy with the advent of NZB files and indexing sites coupled with software that would download, par and unrar all with a few clicks at the max speed of your connection.

I am sure there will be a some changes in the way headers are labled and the way indexing sites work. Definately won't be as easy as today which may not be such a bad thing.
