Actually the last part makes great sense - it pretty much is what allowed music platforms to proliferate. It levels the playing field where you no longer are fleeced mercilessly.
I mean, I use Libgen and usually get enough books to cost me 5k or 10k €. Hopefully it will bring sanity into that market (Even though it is already blocked in UK, for some obscure reason)
Take my Spotify away and I'll probably just stop caring about music that much at all

- dogma1138 10y agohttp://golibgen.io/ http://golibgen.io/ works. The UK's asinine policy in regards to the internet is why I no longer use any connection that terminate in the UK.
- jnsaff2 10y agoOr use http://aa.net.uk http://aa.net.uk which does not have filtering at all and has native IPv6, is run by people who care for their craft. I've been a very happy customer.
- dogma1138 10y agoThey unfortunately have datacaps and don't offer fiber only openreach FTTC style connections at best and at about 3 times what I pay for 1gbit up/down in London ATM.
- badpenny 10y agoWhat do you mean by "they don't offer fiber"? At first I thought you meant they don't offer FTTP but I checked their website and they do.
- dogma1138 10y agoThat's not fiber, that's Openreach VDSL (BT Infinitniy) over coper which only supports 70-80MB down and about 20-30MB down. London and some other parts of the UK have FTTH now, and it's cheap I am paying 30GBP for a 1 gig symetric connection via hyperoptic. Fiber to the curb is not fiber, anything below 300MBit should not even be considered broadband at this day and age tbh.
- WhatDF 10y agowhere can you get 1 gig for £30?
- colejohnson66 10y agoDoes straight IP work? http://93.174.95.27 http://93.174.95.27
- Quanttek 10y agoIn Germany ibgen.org redirects to http://gestao.ibgen.com.br/aluno/ http://gestao.ibgen.com.br/aluno/ and libgen.in is just displaying a parked domin site. Or are those outdated domains?
