Oink taken down
mberan42:
I'm listening to Pandora right now on a Mogwai channel. Some awesome song came on called Mo/Kertia - The Dark Part Of The Year off of "More Happy Moments With..." by Hoven Droven. I've never heard of them before, but the song is pretty damn awesome: post-rock with a traditional Irish theme. I really dig it.
What the hell am I supposed to do now? Sure, I could randomly buy an album of theirs, but what if it turns out that this is their only song I like? I can't download anything by them now to see if I really do like them. I've no way of getting into them, and I feel that I would really enjoy their music.
DAMN YOU BRITISH AND DUTCH FEDERAL AGENTS!!

Yeah, see, that's the whole point. You did a simple search and may have found what I was listening to. Guarantee is not ensured.
With OiNK, I was positively guaranteed that what I was downloading was what it claimed to be. If I wanted a FLAC version of Sex Bomb by Flipper, one simple search was all it took - within 4 minutes I had it; I had an actual FLAC file that contained the entirety of Sex Bomb by Flipper. What I did not have were any surprises, any unfortunate links, any unusual or disgusting or repulsive or eccentric pictures or files. OiNK was so strictly moderated that you were absolutely guaranteed to receive exactly what you wanted to receive. It was amazing.
I wholeheartedly thank my inviter; I am a changed man because of you. (Let me know if you hear of the next best thing. Invite me - I'll abide by the rules, I promise!)

OiNK simply WAS the best. u could be sure that anything u got had amazing quality. that's what i loved about OiNK.

anyone got an invite to hand out?
indietorrent?

MysticalChicken:
It's probably a good thing that I was never invited to OiNK and indeed never even typed oink.cd in the URL bar... otherwise I'd be as disappointed as the rest of you, probably. I actually knew almost nothing about it until it got taken down.
