Hello gals and guys,

We're very sorry having to tell you that we had to shut down EZT 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!

Thanks for pointing that out, I didn't go there much but I know they were one of the biggest around after the fall of sharingthegroove. Glad to see others picking up the ball on that.

Yeah it's a great place alright . i wish sharing the groove was still around too , they had some really hard to find boots that just seemed to constantly be updated very cool
