The Pirate Bay torrent tracker uses the Last.fm tagging system.
On the pages of the torrent tracker The Pirate Bay, owned by the same name of the Swedish organization, a music section appeared that allows you to search for the content of the website using the tag system borrowed from the popular social network Last.fm.
The administration of The Pirate Bay believes that with the help of the new tagging system, users can not only quickly find the right music, but also discover new artists. While the system is working in beta mode, however, it already looks promising. According to representatives of The Pirate Bay, the Last.fm management did not give an official permission to use its API, however, it is not required because the API is open, reports TorrentFreak.com.
Recall that The Pirate Bay resource combines the functions of a tracker and a search engine for torrent files needed to start downloading certain materials. Through the website, you can easily find copyrighted materials, in particular, the latest news of film distribution and popular music hits. The resource has long caused sharp dissatisfaction on the part of the right holders who have repeatedly tried to close the service. Moreover, about a year ago, access to the service for a short period of time was blocked as a result of a raid by the Swedish security services. However, the site soon resumed work.
