Not really, for the pirate bay to be anything like the yellow pages, the yellow pages would have to be the illegal shit pages. Believe it or not pirate/piracy means copyright infringement, TPB owners know that and are proud of helping to distribute other peoples data/content.

Napster and other filesharing services have been taken down just for listing content, they didn't share the data themselves. But they still got shutdown and other services have been shutdown for the same thing. TPB has only last this long because they are in Sweden.
