AllofMP3.com will likely be shut down by Russian authorities as part of its entrance into the World Trade Organization (WTO). But the site is fighting back, providing a legal argument for its continued operation.

A document released by the Office of the United States Trade Representative seems to indicate that Russia and the US have come to an agreement that would remove one of the biggest roadblocks to its entry into the WTO - intellectual property rights.

The people behind it will be sampling some Polonium-210 if they aren't careful - Russia seems to have bigger issues than the odd questionable MP3 site that call their place as a civilized trading nation into question.

Well the state department can only do so much at one time so they have to prioritize and handle the really important issues first.
