Topic: The Promo Bay and Bitcoin (Read 906 times)
Just sent a message that I want to buy shirts with bitcoins
For those unfamiliar, The Promo Bay is a program where The Pirate Bay promotes independent artists by putting their logos and links to their websites on The Pirate Bay home page for the weekend. The artists' works are distributed as torrents for free but they typically direct users to their website where they provide donation options.
TorrentFreak has an article up today about how this weekend's Promo Bay Artists (game developers) found themselves in this fortunate position: http://torrentfreak.com/pirated-indie-game-devs-get-full-pirate-bay-support-to-crack-steam-120215/
These game devs just learned about bitcoin today and added a donation address to their website:

It would be great if The Promo Bay also promoted artist compensation via Bitcoin. If you agree, you can send The Pirate Bay the suggestion here: http://thepiratebay.se/contact
