British and Dutch police shut down file sharing hub Oink:

This site has been closed as a result of a criminal investigation by IFPI, BPI, Cleveland Police and the Fiscal Investigation Unit of the Dutch Police (FIOD ECD) into suspected illegal music distribution. A criminal investigation continues into the identities and activities of the site’s users.

(That’s Cleveland in the UK, by the way)
