Looks like EZT has been shut down, in order not to get sued

No, wait, my final torrent is still running (Ian Dury @ BBC)!!!
Here's what they say:
Hello gals and guys,
We're very sorry having to tell you that we had to shut down EZT forever just a couple of minutes ago.
We got a call from our provider, they had received a few letters from a couple of lawyers. They requested EZT to be shut down immediately, otherwise we and the hosting service would be sued.
As you may imagine, we do not have the funds to fight a battle we most probably can't win anyway.
We would like to thank everyone here for their contributions to EZT, one way or the other, for sharing the music, sharing an ideal, for all your mails, rants, praises...
To say it with Joan Armatrading:
We had fun, fun, fun, fun
fun, fun, fun, fun
we had fun -- while it lasted...
--"Tall in the Saddle"--
You all take good care!
The EZT team

Luckily, something always seems to come along to fill the void. The playing fields come and go - Napster, Morpheus, Sharing The Groove, EZT - but the game goes on.

Sigh. Guess we'll just have to go back to doing things the old way. You know, stamps, envelopes, all that.

Looks like you were right- easytree is back up and running! It's now 'dimeadozen'.
