Is there a description about the details how all of this should work? I cant find anything. Or is he collecting money without telling anybody? Would be a really dubious move.

there are no details, but he tells us it will be private, safe and big. transaction off chain, rewards for content creators etc. her is a good summery:

a lot of BS if you ask me.

does megaupload finally introduce the bitcoin i did not know that mega upload was uploaded again what i heared the last time about it was that lot of people are saying that the site was down.

kim dotcom is going to make megaupload 2.0 that synced with bitcoin micro transaction,the past megaupload was taken down by FBI because it's ripping off so many contents and kimdotcom's wealth had been raided,the website down because it's seized

Can we make money participating on the site?

Really have no idea on this one, is this a site that pays bitcoins for every download of the files we uploaded. I want to know please.

that should be idea but we will have to wait for it to see if this concept will be like that
i sure hope for that, and on other hand maybe it will be just some small amount for upload and that is it
no idea how it will be just speculation and guessing

the project is not even near complete and Kim is teasing us with it and he is mostly trying to Hype it up so by the time of its release a lot of people already know about it and it becomes popular faster.

if it doesn't end up being like a cash cow project for some people to just make bitcoin and dump it for fiat, then i guess this can be a great thing for bitcoin usage.

if there is any website uploader hosting available for this, then i think more people will be attracted to use their service and got paid with bitcoin and more people will be know of bitcoin and its good for bitcoin itself.

and i think there are file hosting that will be accept bitcoin for paid their member.

If it is MU2 and Bitcache are just as powerful as Kim described, bitcoin price will not stop at $2000. It can easily hit $10,000 to 20,000. At that point people will be using "mBTC" or "bits" in their transaction.

I wouldn't bet on that!
Dotcom is as usual overhyping his own project.
I can not see how this should push up Bitcoin to over $2000. Uploaders will get paid in some way, so nothing new here.
And downloaders will have to pay a very small fraction for the wanted data?? Then I doubt people will not use it.They will use some of the other several services out there.
Right this is all just pure wild guessing as no one of us knows how his concept should work out.
But for now I'm pessimistic as I know how pushed Dotcom lots of his businesses in the past which often ended with a failure.

Megaupload being a site offering something that goes against the laws of some countries would be a perfect mix with something as anonymous and secure as bitcoin, I think they would be a good mix in both aspects, these being buying subscriptions and at the same time having links attached to a BTC transaction therefore keeping it for long term.

Good assessment mate i think that explanation would open some mind here making this opportunity for both system will be a perfect combo megaupload risng again plus bitcoin having more adoption all over the web. Looking for the success here.

still i have some bad felling about this
it is good concept but dont think it will be that easy
it might be much more after launch that if will come to good/perfect condition so i think it will be lot latter
maybe it will be testing phase at start and after some time it will be like it should for uploading and sharing some small amount will get users for it

I have some doubts as well.
When bitcoin is used as the main payment method for something everybody knows to be illegal, that gives me a bad feeling.
I think that the main market for this new megaupload would be Us and Europe. I can imagine that the officials there will put up some efforts to stop the new Dotcom service.
And the best way to stop a business would be to cut its financial base, which would be bitcoin in this matter.
Who knows with what ideas the governments would come up to reach that goal. Might be just bad for dotcom, might be bad for bitcoin as well.

So according to the article users who share their stuff on Megaupload 2.0 starting next January will get a revenue stream in Bitcoins right? Does anyone know how this will work? Like do you get more Bitcoins if more users download your stuff? Anyways I will just wait and see how this thing pans out. I doubt it will overtake the torrent network in popularity but who knows I may be very wrong

The problem with torrent network is lonegevity of files. Old, unpopular, non-mainstream files are very hard to download, because no one is hosting them.
With file hosting services it could be different, will it be more popular than torrents? I doubt it. Will it be used solely because it is linked to bitcoin? Probably not.
It needs to offer something better than our current hosting services and until Bitcache will be publicly released, details will be unknown.

in torrent cases they are active if there is someone to seed them if that torrents is good then users are plenty to share and build up ratio on some trackers
will it be used only for that i agree with you completely it will have much more for this to be accomplished not just announcement and promises

there have been some new information on this new megaupload by kimdotkom and it seems even mroe interesting and i think this is going to make bitcoin a lot more popular than it is right now when it is released.

I have been looking a bit on the internet, and so far there is no information about what the project will exactly do and look like. At least, nothing that we didn't know already, so I'm curious where you have seen this "new" information.

this sounds to me like the typical wishful thinking. at least a reason would be nice. we are around $600, so $20,000 is about 33 times this much. i do not see a reason for this.

The fact that nobody is hosting old unpopular files shows that nobody cares enough to do so. So it's not really a problem for most people, and thus no reason to move somewhere else.
Old but popular movies are easy to find on torrents. And even if you do upload rare old files, it won't earn you anything because nobody will look for it.

I've only once downloaded a file that took a month. Usually it's done within the hour.
