TV-Links.co.uk shut down, 26 year old owner arrested

According to After Dawn:

TV-links.co.uk, the UK’s most used piracy film website has been closed down and its owner arrested after a raid by the anti-piracy group, Federation Against Copyright Theft (Fact).

The closure was a first for major UK-based pirate sites and the owner, a 26-year-old man from Cheltenham, was arrested for charges relating to facilitating copyright infringement over the internet.

FACT claims that the site was providing links to pirated films as well as American TV shows.

It was inevitable, given how the site was providing a useful service for consumers that TV networks apparently refuse to provide. It goes to follow, logically, that since TV networks as a general rule hate consumers, that they’d come after tv-links eventually.

Anyone know what the next tv-links site is yet?
