A week ago bittorrent tracking site OiNK was raided by police and shut down, the owner has said that he has done nothing wrong, owns no music illegally himself and didn’t make people pay to access, only accepted donations to keep the site going. With all of this noise, The Pirate Bay is making attempts to bring OiNK back online, this time as boink.cd. As covered before, it won’t be member only, it won’t have all the content from OiNK and it isn’t officially associated with the OiNK owner at all.

Sometime in the last day or so, The Pirate Bay peoples posted up this funny image on boink.cd:

The title for the page reads: oink.cd – the number 1 site in the world for waffle recipes, under the image of the waffles is this hyperlink,

These are the waffles that taste really good according to google.

This is a really interesting marketing method. Thousands of bloggers and forum dwellers have been covering what happened to OiNK and that boink.cd would be taking over. That means that thousands of people are viewing the boink.cd site, which is in turn, using Google to show music lovers what to use instead of OiNK. It may be one of the greatest marketing ploys this decade – showing the RIAA and others that one torrent-tracking site isn’t destroying the music industry; Google itself enables people to find that which they are seeking. It is absolutely brilliant.
