The November 2011 Notorious Markets List
The list below identifies particular markets in which pirated or counterfeit goods are reportedly
available, but is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of all notorious markets around the
world. Rather, the list highlights some of the most prominent examples reported to USTR of
notorious markets in each of the categories referenced below. A significant number of the
markets identified in this report are reportedly located in China and the Eastern European region.
The United States urges the responsible authorities in relevant jurisdictions to intensify efforts to
investigate reports of piracy and counterfeiting in these and similar markets.
Pay-per-download
These websites exemplify the problem of online sales of pirated music on a pay-per-download
basis.
Allofmp3 clones: While the Russia-based allofmp3 (formerly the world’s largest serverbased pirate music website) was shut down in 2007, sites that are nearly identical, many
of which appear to be owned by the same parties, have taken its place. These websites
appear to be designed to confuse consumers by operating much like popular, legitimate
sites.
Linking
These are online services engaged in “deep linking” to allegedly infringing material that is often
stored on third-party hosting sites.
Sogou MP3: China-based Sogou MP3 reportedly provides easy access to deeplinks of
music files for downloading or streaming, and reportedly ignores rights holders’ notices
to take down infringing material.
Gougou: Industry reports that this China-based website actively provides users with
deeplinks to infringing music files and torrent links from unauthorized sources.
B2B and B2C
Commenters has reported that these Business-to-Business (B2B) and Business-to-Consumer
(B2C) websites offer a wide range of infringing products (such as cigarettes, clothing,
manufactured goods, pharmaceutical products and sporting goods) to consumers and businesses. Taobao: Several commenters reported that pirated and counterfeit goods continue to be
widely available on China-based Taobao. While stakeholders report that Taobao
continues to make significant efforts to address the problem, they recognize that much
remains to be done. Taobao was recently listed as one of the top 16 most visited sites in
the world, and one of the top three most visited sites in China, according to rankings
published at Alexa.com.
Modchip.ca and Consolesource: Both sites, reportedly based in Canada, allegedly sell
circumvention devices and components used to circumvent technological protection
measures on game consoles.
BitTorrent Indexing
Although BitTorrent indexing sites can be used for lawful purposes, such sites can also be used
for the high-speed locating and downloading of allegedly infringing materials from other users.
The sites identified below are examples of sites allegedly being used for unlawful purposes.
ThePirateBay: Despite the criminal conviction of its founders, the Sweden-based
ThePirateBay continues to facilitate the download of unauthorized content.
ThePirateBay recently ranked among the top 100 websites in both global and U.S. traffic,
according to Alexa.com.
IsoHunt: Canada-based IsoHunt is one of the largest BitTorrent indexes in the world,
ranking among the top 300 websites in global traffic and among the top 600 in U.S.
traffic, according to Alexa.com. At least one U.S. court has found liability in cases
involving IsoHunt.
Btjunkie: This site, which reportedly is based in Sweden and the Netherlands, is among
the largest and most visited aggregators of public and non-public “torrents,” ranking
among the top 500 in the world and in the U.S. according to Alexa.com, which find and
initiate the downloading process for particular files.
Kat.ph (formerly kickasstorrents): Another popular indexing site, this site, which
reportedly is based in Canada, Ukraine and Romania, is notable for its commercial look
and feel. The site is currently ranked by Alexa.com among the 320 most visited sites in
the world.
torrentz.eu (formerly torrentz.com): This site, which reportedly is based in Canada,
Panama and Switzerland, is a major aggregator of torrents from other BitTorrent sites,
and currently ranks among the top 150 sites in the world.
BitTorrent Trackers
Although BitTorrent trackers can be used for lawful purposes, such sites can also be used to
transfer allegedly infringing material, by directing users to peers who share the infringing
content. The sites listed below are examples of sites allegedly being used for unlawful purposes.
Rutracker: Russia-based Rutracker recently ranked by Alexa.com among that country’s
15 most visited sites, and among the 300 most visited sites in the world, and reportedly
allows for the fast identification and download of pirated content.
Demonoid: Ukraine-based Demonoid recently ranked among the top 600 websites in
global traffic and the top 300 in U.S. traffic, according to Alexa.com. Recent action by
the Mexican Attorney General led to the arrest of the site’s administrator. zamunda: Bulgarian-based zamunda, currently ranked among the top six most visited
sites in Bulgaria, according to Alexa.com, is currently the target of a noteworthy criminal
prosecution.
Social Media Sites
Social media sites are widely used for lawful purposes. However, some may facilitate the
unauthorized access to allegedly infringing materials.
vKontakte: This Russian site, which permits users to provide access to allegedly
infringing materials, recently ranked among the four most visited sites in Russia and
among the 40 most visited sites in the world, according to Alexa.com.
Cyberlockers
These sites enable users to store files on servers that can be accessed at any time and from any
location, which allows widespread sharing among users who obtain the link to these “lockers.”
Cyberlockers, while widely used for lawful purposes, can also enable the widespread distribution
of unauthorized content by disseminating the link via websites, blogs, forums, etc.
Megaupload: One of the 70 most visited sites in the world according to Alexa.com, this
site, reportedly based in the Netherlands and Hong Kong, allows for the unauthorized
distribution of protected content through subscriptions and reward schemes to popular
uploaders.
Putlocker: This United Kingdom-based site offers both streaming and downloading of
significantly large video files, and includes a reward system for popular uploaders.
Blogs, Online Forums, and Newsgroups
While blogs, online forums, and newsgroups are most often associated with legal activities, these
sites are sometimes used to distribute infringing content and hacked or cracked software codes.
Warez-bb: This forum site, which is reportedly based in Luxembourg, Switzerland and
Sweden and is ranked among the top 700 sites globally, is described as a hub for the
sharing of copyrighted works, including pre-release music. Industry efforts to remove
infringing content are hampered by the very quick replacement of removed content.
Unlicensed Programming Retransmission
Unlicensed programming retransmission, which includes live sports telecast piracy, affects
amateur and professional sports leagues and other television programming rights holders by
making protected telecasts and broadcasts freely available, without authorization, over the
Internet.
TV Ants: This peer-to-peer service, which reportedly operates from China, exemplifies
this problem. Physical Markets (in alphabetical order)

internationally.
Ciudad del Este (Paraguay)
In Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, the city’s economy is reportedly based in part on the
trafficking of counterfeit and infringing goods. Electronic goods, including
circumvention devices and modified game systems, are reportedly an especially
prominent feature of the illicit trafficking. This activity reportedly spills over into the
entire Tri-Border Region of Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil.

Lo Wu Commercial Center (Shenzhen, China)

effective deterrent.

are known for dealing in large volumes of pirated software, pirated optical media
containing movies and music, and counterfeit goods.
PC Malls (China)

metropolitan Manila, known to deal in counterfeit and pirated goods such as clothing,

Baan Mor shopping areas, among others, as targets for enforcement against piracy and
counterfeiting.

including in Bogota and Cali, are notorious for unauthorized reproduction of music, video
games and movies, and for the unauthorized distribution of pirated and counterfeit goods.
Silk Market (Beijing, China)
Right holders have identified Beijing’s Silk Street Market as a particularly prominent
example of the counterfeiting of consumer and industrial products that is endemic in
many retail and wholesale markets throughout China.
Tepito (Mexico City)
Tepito is reportedly the main warehousing and distribution center for pirated and
counterfeit products sold at numerous informal markets throughout Mexico. Despite
enforcement actions that resulted in significant seizures, illicit activity allegedly persists
in Tepito.
Urdu Bazaars (Pakistan)
The Urdu Bazaars in Karachi and Lahore reportedly remain the main sources of pirated
books in the country, though book piracy is widespread and extends beyond such bazaars.
