Aren’t most Nigerians starving already? Who cares if recording industry and pro-copyright officials choose to starve to death. Let’s hope they film it and laugh at them. ;)

so in a third world country with lots of people truly living in poverty, the rich people are going to show they deserve more money by going hungry? PURE GENIUS!

[...] Music Industry Groups Threaten Hunger Strike Over Piracy In apparent despair at the levels of music piracy in Nigeria, a collection of music industry groups are hoping to attract the attention of the country’s president by taking drastic measures. They hope that broadcasters will soon run a “no music day” and if that wasn’t dramatic enough, they are also calling for a “mass hunger strike”. [...]

You’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 ‘yeah, we know thousands are living in poverty, yeah we know it’s possibly the worst place in the world to live – and we know you’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?’

Well the answer is never you shower of ****s.

You picked the wrong country to try and get rich from an art form in.

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

If you expect your music to never be pirated, you will starve. I release my own music through the same channels I get it from, and I’m a jolly fat man!
