           piracy = freedom, Tons of stuff I download they do not sell, Many items I download (songs from artist) I buy lots of merchandise that the artist has on promotion like purses, candy, t shirts, bags, sleeping bags, hats, shorts, pants, some music cd’s that are not in production, books, movies (download some others they made too), so realistically speaking, If I was to pay for ever item when often the stuff I download (not always but often the artist gives away for free so u will buy the above and tell ur friends abt him/her) I would have to spend somewhere around 200,000 or more of usd. This is the 2000′s, many artist recognize this and do not expect you to pay all their music, just some and buy other merchandise/tell ur friends abt them.

    So if one was to “pirate” something they would almost be eaten by a horde zombies, only to be saved by the suing artist being eaten instead.
    Seems legit…

      It’s obviously the RIAA and MPAA hinting to their new punishment for being found guilty of illegal file sharing.

  • Nick

    oh what the fuck is this fear propaganda. This kind of content should get a lawsuit

  • Alyssa Blindy

    Would someone please give me the link to this video? It is not accessible for me; I can’t find the play button on the page because the screenreader software doesn’t know how to access it.

        Thank you. That was very helpful. As for the video, well, wow. Just wow.

    • Camilo Martin

      Wait, I don’t understand, you are blind and use a screen reader but actually can watch a video?

      • Alyssa Blindy

        Oh my goodness, I should have made it more clear. I never technically “watched” the video, I listened to the video. Ah, that makes sense now, doesn’t it? Lol. I used my inferencing skills to understand what happened in the video. What I got was that some kids who called themselves “ninjas” (probably in some cryptic reference to ninjavideo but that’s just my thought) anyway they were caught pirating by this artist who became upset that they were taking her intellectual property. Some other adult, I am guessing a parent, said they could just delete the file and it would be okay, but the artist decided to feed them to some form of zombies. You see, I say I “watch” videos but in technical terms, I simply listen to them. I just say I watch them because that’s the normal thing that just comes out.

        • no name but still here

          Yeah Alyssa, you seen it for what it actually is. Visually there isn’t much to see.

          The visuals are of an animation with badly made modelling clay figures.
          The type of figure you would have made when you where a kid.
          It’s stop frame animation, so the clay models move all jerky wairki bairski like !
          There are five, different colored ninja’s. Each of them have their mouths covered with their Ninja suits, which is really quite convenient as the animation of the mouth moving for the female, non ninja character, is really appalling. Imagine a wobbly clay molded mouth bigger than the charterers face when it’s open and just average lips when closed, I was better playing with clay when I was 5.
          On greater looking at the shitness of the characters, they may be action figures with some modeling clay over them.
          It really is bad.

          If my eyes could hear, it would look like this…..
          voooh ruuuummmmviibb fullbeeerrrrrrr glllloooop pop pop. plop

          It was really that bad Alyssa, and that’s just the presentation.

          Anyway , see you around. ANoiXioNA

        • Alyssa Blindy

          Lol thanks. Great description of the visuals. Loved it.

    This video is more likely to increase piracy than to prevent it…

      The whole video is centered around how corrupt the entertainment industry is

  • Porn

    They should make a porn version.

  • 5alil

    still & will always download music illegally while i’m singing “and yes i’m bad, i’m bad, i’m bad, come on” lol

  • Andrew Lee

    The real question is would you steal a car? Well since downloading is copying if I could copy a car you could bet your ass that I would.

  • Guest

    So wait, we should pirate because artists are nothing but evil people who sound like shit acapella and have ridiculous resources?

  • http://twitter.com/Mathew30 Mathew Lisett

    just wish to point out that , when you listen or watch something on the web, you have already downloaded it to do that action, without actually manually downloading it. so the argument is quite invalid.

    And i would have thought the more important piracy would have been that of the people that download and sell the content in the masses, not the bloody people that download for (i would say no price, but then again you do pay for the electric and the isp fee each month) and we dont sell it on to make a profit.

    I really cant stand the consistent bullshit of these stupid ads campaigns .
