They said that they confiscated 6,397. Where exactly are the other 3 missing cds. I know for a fact that they manufacture in round figures which would be maybe 6,500 copies.
Maybe the same policemen kept the rest of them. You all should know that it was in MEXICO where it happened. Check out in the flea markets and swap meets and you’ll see them there.
Also I don’t think it is really piracy since some labels have a hidden clause in the contracts. I’m pretty sure the last one laughing will be Sony Music.

To first go on a rampage all over the world, declaring war on those who “steal” music, one should be surprised that Sony would do something like this themselves….
Wonder why nobody is?
Sony should learn not to throw bricks when they live in a glasshouse.

If they get away with it, I’ll be really surprised
In America, your considered innocent until proven guilty, but in Mexico its the other way around
Your considered guilty until proven innocent
But the Mexican Government also accepts bribes with open arms in most cases.
So we’ll see what happens.
If they actually get punished though, this will be a true win for pirates everywhere

“What exactly did he expect when he signed with the Sony devil? What they did was normal Sony behaviour.”

And this moron went out an signed with Vivendi Universal!

They are worst!

Vivendi is the corporation we should destroy first because it poses the greatest risk to our societies and our democracies.

Nice one. I can’t stand bullying multi national companies.

I hope the artist is correct about his contract, if so, I hope Sony get dicked in the courtroom. I would say $1 per song is fair, or say $10 per CD, however they don’t treat normal people like this, so I hope they get the maximum fine available in Mexico.

Or send in Team America and fine them $50,000 per infraction or whatever they can fine.

Somebody who’s talented with music ought to make a PRO – SHARING song with a strong political message and catchy refrain…

Then release it all over Youtube and sharing sites until it becomes a number one hit…

That should give the struggle more exposure…

The majors pull this type of crap all the time, they’ve been sticking it to artists just as much as they do the public and they’ve been doing so for decades.
