Textbook Torrent Update


According to the Chronicle Wired Campus blog, the web site that I wrote about earlier called Textbook Torrents has been taken offline. The site had hundreds of links to bootleg textbooks and had been online since January 2007. Actually, it was a piece in The Chronicle that probably did them in since it brought the attention of publishers to the site which had been "underground" for months.

Visitors to the site now see an error message saying “Site Temporarily Unavailable.”
