I think you two have hit the nail on the head collectively. I don't
condone stealing, and that's what that site is allegedly doing. While
blocking might work to an extent, there will always be people who
disregard what is a righteous law (copyright) and find ways to circumvent
what is done legally. Thanks for confirming my thoughts.
