it will stay forever but it will never have updates.
It will have updates if someone uploads them. Hosting sites like Mangago and Youtube are protected for now by the Digital Millenium Copyright Act as their content is provided by users who upload (i.e. us), so we take the blame. That's why DMP is going after the scanlators. People are being forced to take scalations off blogs and personal websites, but if it's posted to here or someone provides a dowload link to a file hosting service then there's not a lot DMP can do. Shame as I think the problem is the other way around.

Has anyone ever looked at DMP and June's website? Absolute load of rubbish. Ridiculously hard to navigate, so poorly designed, can't buy anything paper and Amazon is so anal they reject most harder BL titles for Kindle so you can't even get digital versions. In These Words is out of print forever and only available in a digital version, has been rejected by Amazon and is currently waiting for approval by nook (which I don't have - I have a Kindle T__T). Makes me angry. No wonder no one buys anything from them. And how come I can buy Viewfinder volume 1 for £4.18 - new, in French but £17.89 - new, in English. Um... WHAT?! Need to learn Frech now.
And the US version is slightly censored from the Japanese. Grrr. Just makes me want to go out and scanlate.
It came back QQ? I hope it stays forever
