Just saw this on TechCrunch this moring, “AllofMP3 To Rise From The Dead” …
The owners of the now infamous cut price Russian MP3 retail site AllofMP3 have posted that the site will soon recommence trading.
The announcement follows a Russian court decision August 15 that found AllofMP3’s previous CEO was not guilty of breaching Russian copyright laws, and therefore the AllofMP3 service was legal.
EMI, NBC Universal and Time Warner had led the legal case against AllofMP3, with the US Government previously threatening to escalate the dispute regarding AllofMP3 to the World Trade Organization (WTO).
According to AllofMP3, “The service will be resumed in the foreseeable future.”
This is good news for many people that loved the service when it was working (not so good news for the music industry execs that hate the Russian site. It’ll be interesting to see their reaction to this news).
Stay tuned to their site for more … www.allofmp3.ru <- notice the .ru instead of .com address.
BTW, AllofMP3’s holding company MediaServices continues to operate mp3sparks.com - the site is an almost exact replica of the other.

Thanks for the link to mp3sparks…I was looking all over for it, and luckily remembered this was where I originally found it.
