So you all I'm not a bitch ass nigger. But this time i will be one.
One of the founders of Pirate Bay (http://piratebay.com/) Peter Sunde has been reported as one of the keynote speakers at iWeek conference (http://www.iweek.co.za/). Which happens to start the same day as Moshito 2009 2nd - 5th September (http://www.moshito.com).
So while the music industry will be discussing papers in improving their business in making sure that more money is made by the creators and owners of the music; Peter Sunde will be busy be teaching South African Internet Service Providers how to make it possible for music to be downloaded for free.
Wow so the guy learns how to create IP (Intellectual Property) then he intern wants other IP's to be free. I wonder if he would be ok if he spoke for free for the rest of his life or if we all had access to use his investment account for holidays in the Bahamas.
I don't think this guy should be let in to speak in the country. I think he must be refused a VISA and I know other people that think he should go fly! He is poison who is going to let big business make money from advertisers because of the traffic that they will be conducting since people would easily and freely take a song you created for FREE!
By the way even when its month end they will be smiling taking their partners to dinner listening to your FREE music!
Why should everyone make money of music indirectly while the creators and owners of music can't??!! So if you believe this guy shouldn't come to South Africa sign your name... This is my personal opinion not that of Sony ATV, NORM or Moshito.

ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this one, people like this need to be kept out of the country as bad as it sounds. But I'm not down with anyone shortchanging me.
