    I don't think that mega-upload will be closed. While we are uploading the files each and we have to accept their terms and conditions that means there is no mistake from mega upload site.

    The reason the site has been closed is the owner has been a very naughty boy and broken some rules,they plan on taking his pocket money away and send him to gaol without his tea.

    "Authorities claim Megaupload Ltd., based in Hong Kong, and its collection of websites generated more than $175 million in criminal proceeds and caused more than half a billion dollars in harm to copyright owners" - here's an official version why megaupload was closed.

    The site is currently showing a seizure notice from the US District Court and lists the charges the MegaUpload guys have been arrested for.

    I don't think it will be back online any time soon.

    I think it is because of Piracy.. I saw many pirated software, movies, songs..etc that has been uploaded to megaupload.
