		<description>You&#039;re all a bunch of idiots.

This has nothing to do with American artists - only Nigerian artists.

President change, regieme change, and now they have the audacity to say to the president &#039;yeah, we know thousands are living in poverty, yeah we know it&#039;s possibly the worst place in the world to live - and we know you&#039;re trying to fix it... but what about us eh? The musicians? When do we get to make *our* millions like the American artists do?&#039;

Well the answer is never you shower of ****s.

You picked the wrong country to try and get rich from an art form in.</description>

		<description>I´m wondering how they came up with this idea:
¨&quot;Uh oh, people are getting music from pirates instead of trough legal sources&quot;
&quot;Oh, I have an idea!&quot;
&quot;What?&quot;
&quot;Let´s shut down all the legal sources! That´ll show them!&quot;</description>

		<description>I would be very surprised if true artists did stuff like that to get people to enjoy their art. 

That said, the post header does say &#039;industry&#039;, so that would stand to reason that those who believe more in money might.</description>

I wouldn&#039;t be so quick to assume those comments are by your average reader.  Look at the first 5 comments for example.  Anything strike you as odd about them?  Tone setting?  Take a look sometime at how easy it can be to manipulate the responses of others on an issue by doing such, you may be surprised. . .</description>

		<description>Music is meant to be an uplifting aspect of all societies. In the world we live in, it may be one of the few things keeping people sane. a hunger strike over piracy? I think these record companies need to remember what really made them get into the music industry in the first place. music is about making people happy, not making people money. the world needs to grow up.</description>

		<description>Hmmm.... I imagine most people in Nigeria have more serious things to worry about than whether some artist reckons he gets paid enough.

But it&#039;s interesting to hear that this debate is taking place in Nigeria too, a third world country. 

What of India, Pakistan etc?</description>

		<description>Anyone who knows something is properly for sale but takes a free copy for themselves is a pirate and part of the problem. Whether you resell or not is not the arbiter of &quot;commercial&quot;. 

If the file you take at no payment to the rights holder has a commercial value and you thus &quot;save yourself&quot; that money, that&#039;s a &quot;commercial&quot; infringement, the sum total value of your infringement is the commercial value of your infraction. That&#039;s partt of why statutory damages can be so high. This remains true virtually everywhere on earth except Spain and we&#039;ll se how long they can afford to be viewed as part of the problem in the greater world of global commerce.

But poor folks in Nigeria have few tools at hand to protest the financial ransacking of their goods through copyright infringement so they do whatever they can, while you laugh and tell them all to &quot;die.&quot; Pirates have never been accused of being classy, that&#039;s for sure.

Of course, here in the states we have this little inconvenience called legal accountability. Tenenbaum&#039;s opening arguments start in just about an hour. He probably just WISHES he could die. lol</description>

		<description>Now if we can only get the likes of Lars Ulrich and his buddies to join in on this hunger strike...

Seriously though, Nigeria would be way better off doing something about the (foreign) corruption that&#039;s keeping the country in a perpetual chaos so they can rape it&#039;s wealth of natural resources, which should benefit the population instead of the big (western) companies.</description>

		<description>1 - the record companies make money off the artists and give them nothing, people on the street who need to make money to survive aren&#039;t allowed to do the same?

2 - We&#039;ve been sending Nigeria food all along, haven&#039;t we? This is the new nigerian scam, asking for food then hunger striking. :P</description>

&quot;Nigeria? LOL!! Starve to death, please.&quot;

&quot;let them die&quot;

Comments like these make me lose a lot of respect to the people in this community... fucking pathetic losers 

If you were living in a poverty stricken 3rd world country and were only getting paid for 20% of your work you would be pretty desperate also.</description>

My guess is its stuff from the USA big businesses.

Just another shameless Con Job by huge corporations after the last $ they can get. Now they want people to die for their bottom line ... Its a bit sick really</description>

		<description>It&#039;s a good idea. I think they should try it in the rest of the world. Maybe even set up a cam that shows the slow death of execs at RIAA, BREIN, and the like. And a big party when they are all dead.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s not like the people in the music industry have become homeless because of piracy. There are still quite a lot of users who pay for music which means that the music industry is still making huge profits.

The way I see it, these people are too greedy and have gone on a hunger strike for their greed. This kind of behavior is comparable to children throwing tantrums.
 
So starve starve starve...
die die die...</description>

		<description>NOT TRUE! Musicians in Nigeria are making millions. Definitely not struggling. How do I know? A famous Nigerian musician just emailed me the other day. Says he needs to transfer 10 million dollars into the US and needs my bank account info (he will give me some of the money for use of my account).

I&#039;ll be laughing all the way to the bank.</description>
