Never heard of it, but I would be leery of it. Why register and pay a
fee to engage in an illegal activity? Without ever saying it, they
give the impression (at least to me) that their service solves the
piracy issues plaguing other services such as Kazaa.

And what is up with their home page http://www.247downloads.com ? The
whole page is nothing but one large gif file. Clicking anywhere on the
page takes you to the signup form. Call me paranoid, but I smell a
rat.
