Blatant Piracy !!!!

Kids got guts!

 

That's when the RIAA takes out the BIG can of whoop-ass.

Sorry, but what a *****. Wanna nail him, Rudy?

 

Check out his "other" auctions. Oldies, etc. How can eBay let this slide?

Look at this ended auction. "91 copies available"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1573&item=2561592068

His copy says "If purchased separately or on TV, this set would cost over $150.00!!"

 

I reported. Let's see how long it lasts.

 

And a power seller yet!

 

Blatant piracy is what this seller has done

 

Says these aren't CDRs but how does Bowie land position under the Doobie Brothers? Duh.... Led Zeppelin? Bad Finger? (heh). I don't think so.

 

Here ya go, Sckott!

mud-

 

Notice there are no Beatles or Solo Beatles (At least that I saw)

 

Still, this is piracy, plain and simple.

 

Well let's watch this tomorrow. It will show eBay's receptiveness to piracy. Honestly though, there ARE CDRS you can buy that look silver on both sides, and you can easilly pass them off as "glass manufactured".

Except the lot numbers printed on the hub. OOPS!

 

Check out his purchase just prior to these CD-R's becoming available from this seller.

Lousy wanker.

How to box up and sell poop to unsuspecting morons and get away with it...

Think he has a job?

 

Wow! "You too can make bick bucks selling someone elses property on the internet!"

 

I dunno, is collecting a welfare check considered a job?

 

Say Jon, I know where you can get a 1 bdr. condo in Toronto that comes equipped with some nice tube equipment and a brand new Sony XA-777ES SACDP.

 

How do you guys know this is piracy?

 

These are actually pretty common auctions on ebay. If you run a search with items and descriptions and any 70s artist, you'll find several of these listings. ebay is obviously happy to look the other way, as their inclination is protect sellers. Meanwhile, the RIAA is suing people for downloading a few tracks for personal use...

 

No compact disc logo, no label, no inner spindle numbers, and no stock number.

 

Heeheehee...gladly! Did you check out that VeRO page I sent a link for?

I didn't look at the auction yet (I'm leaving in a few minutes), but if just ONE of those tracks is from a label listed under the VeRO section, and the RIAA is also contacted AND the seller is reported to eBay, it'll be hard to let the auctions continue.

Yeah, let's nail him. If I remember I'll look at them later and file complaints myself. Maybe if more than one of us reports it, they'll get the message.

I'm never against anyone making a buck. If he were selling public domain music, no problem. But if it's unlicensed, and some poor bueyr gets stuck with sub-par merchandise, I'd rather protect the buyer.

 

BTW, if any of you newbies have questions on pirate recordings and how to identify them, please download this .pdf at http://www.riaa.com/issues/piracy/identificationbrochure.pdf

 

Silly us Gary. I mean actually working for a living, what the.....were we thinking?

 

I'm amazed that the seller has predominately positive feedback!!! Maybe his/her eBay customers don't no any better, or don't care to know any better.

This one was funny (for unsuspecting morons):

DOMAIN NAMES FOR AS LITTLE AS $15

As little as? I won't tell him about the "sale" at GoDaddy where I got a few .us domains for $4.95/year. Whoops! Looks like they're still on sale, and .com available for $7.95/year. Yummy.
