This is feels like the Barbara Streisand Effect in action.
I had never heard about this Canna Power piracy website before. Probably a lot of other people haven’t either. But now, when Sony and their friends made this DNS block happen, media coverage has made more of us hear about the Canna Power piracy website.
- kwanbix 3y agoExactly my thoughts.
- y-c-o-m-b 3y agoI have been sailing the dark waters for everything - movies, tv shows, books, games, music, etc - since before the new millennium and I can tell you I've never heard of Canna Power until today. I usually get my content successfully off of the larger public torrent sites, so I guess there's no need, but it's good to have another bookmark in my arsenal! Definitely the Streisand Effect here.
- dizhn 3y agoIt seems to primarily cater to a German speaking audience. That's probably why it isn't more well known. I'd never heard of it either.
- alternatetwo 3y agoI'm German and I've known of it 10 years ago ... and 10 years ago it looked like a site from 20 years ago. I didn't know it still existed either.
- slim 3y agoI'm not german and I had the same experience. it's the guys who've been obsoleted by napster... not.
- alpaca128 3y agoI heard of it ages ago, but it was a terrible experience (constantly opened new browser windows with ads etc) compared to torrents and by the time I actually got interested in music the industry had come up with convenient legal means to buy it. Didn't know that site is still alive though.
