Popular Torrent Site What.CD Shuts Down: ‘All Data Has Been Destroyed’

Invite-only torrent site What.CD, a favorite destination for audiophiles for its vast trove of hard-to-find releases and high-quality files, has terminated operations immediately. A terse statement found on its website mentions “recent events” as the reason for the shut-down. “We are not likely to return any time soon in our current form,” the message reads. “All site and user data has been destroyed. So long, and thanks for all the fish.”
