No one can hold down Kim Dotcom, the Megaupload CEO and creator plans on launching a new version of the torrent site sometime next year. At the height of it popularity the original Megaupload site had 50million visitors a day with support from some music big wigs.
Dotcom has hinted that the new Megaupload torrent site will be available before the end of the year — developers were offered early access to the project last month — while another new service, music-focused Megabox, is thought to be launching within the same timeframe. Now, however, it looks like the launch will slide into 2013.
Taking to Twitter, as he often does, Dotcom recently teased details of Megabox with a video that appeared to feature a number of top artists, including Black Eyed Peas artist Will.I.Am. The German had previously said that the service had secured a number of top artists on exclusive deals.
