Media Defender’s Rip off Music Industry.
It’s interesting that the Music Industry is claiming damages
per file download.
Their interdiction procedures have filled the ED2k (Emule/Edonkey)
network with fake files and their methodology of advertising non-existent files
makes the network appear as if it is thousands of times larger than it really
is.
I wonder if they explain that too the judiciary and
legislators when pressing for relief and damages.
Somehow, I don’t think so.
The result of their interdiction is supposedly to make the
job of finding the file harder to do……
But unfortunately, they lack imagination and think the file
sharing community are dumb.
In my experience, the average user that utilizes file
sharing software is technically competent with an average IQ that would appear
to be far above the Music Industries interdiction hired guns.
Here’s an example of their interdiction of The Script’s
latest release, Beakeven.
Please note the similarity in the file sizes, the length and
the bitrates.
Oh yeah, and each file is only available from a single host
????????????
In other words, 26 users ripped the file (all different hash
file identifiers) with exactly the same bytes, bitrate and song length…..
Ummm, how stupid do they think downloaders are?
And the music industry is paying for this ??????
There used to be a saying: “May God save us from fools and
save fools from themselves.”
I guess this demonstration of the music industry wasting
their money on interdiction is an example of what that saying was meant to
allude to.
From the ROTFLMAO Department.
