The invite-only OiNK, one of the world's biggest and most efficient BitTorrent music sharing sites, has been raided and shut down. DJ /rupture, one of the musicians whose music was distributed on the site, has some interesting thoughts about what Oink meant to him. (thx, jds) (10) #

The Boston Globe reports on a screenwriter who's filing a seemingly strong claim that Broken Flowers was ripped off one of his own scripts by Jim Jarmusch and/or the studios that financed it. I haven't seen the film in question, but it's true that Jarmusch is the last person I'd think of to be involved in a copyright infringement suit on the receiving end. (thx, jbg) (6) #
