Yes it is true. Megaupload, one of the largest file-sharing sites,  has been shut down by the FBI and the US Justice Department. Its owners were accused of violating piracy laws. Since, any video can be uploaded in that site for free, it brings harm to the copyright holders. These copyright holders lost an estimated $500 million dollars because of Megaupload.

Hello Pukiniliza,

megauplod.com has been closed due infringement of copyright laws.

Its owner Kim has stated that he will launch a new file sharing website called mega and scheduled to launch on 19th January 2013.

This new site will allow copyright holders to remove illegally uploaded content without the need of permission from the original uploader.

If you prefer you can use some other file sharing website like Rapidshare. 

You will be given 50GB free storage in mediafire.  Hope this information will help you.
