MegaUpload Was Planing To Launch Its Own Music Label That May Had Prompted The Raid

Omar Morales — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:49:25 +0000

According with a source close to Universal Music Group the government raid against Megaupload was done under heavy lobbying by the RIAA and specially Universal.

According to the source MegaUpload was planning in lunching an upgrade to MegaBox that will had turned the service into a distribution platform. This platform will had allowed the artist to distribute their work for free while earning money from MegaUpload.

This service it's said to have sparked the interest of some major artist and scared the record labels prompting the massive crackdown on Megaupload.

If this is true it will not surprise me or anyone else as we all know how the RIAA & MPAA works like drug cartels and pay huge bribes to our politician (admited by MPAA CEO Chris Dodd)

I just hope someone follow trough with this plan. Me like the vast majority of people aren't against the artist but the middleman labels that screw them and us. But if the artist can find a way to earn money while bypassing the labels I am up for it.

We Need To Get Rid Of Lamar Smith [sopa][1981]

Omar Morales — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 14:06:25 +0000

For once I will love to live in the 21st District of Texas just to vote and campaign against Rep. Lamar Smith.

This guy seriously don't get the internet and even if he did he's priority are the kickbacks he get to pass unrealistic laws.

He is not the author of SOPA but guess what is he up to now. H.R 1981 a law that under the pretense of stoppingchild pornography wants to have every ISP log every time you use your credit card or any payment method online. What you bought or paid for.

Yeah like we want all our financial transaction more under surveillance than they already are. But hey lets add one more he also wants your ISP to log every time you log in to online banking and what you look at when there. What that has to do with child pornography? Exactly nothing is just about keeping a watch on your money 24/7.

Please people of the 21st Texas District you can be so dumb as this guy vote him out his time has pass. Better yet we should limit to 8 years the time senators and representative can spent screwing us in congress.

Who Needs SOPA & PIPA If The MPAA & RIAA Owns The Feds [megaupload]

Omar Morales — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 08:38:17 +0000

Today the FBI seized and shut down Megaupload.com. They main charges are copyright piracy. Surprisingly this come less than 24 hours after the internet massive protest against censorship and giving the MPAA & RIAA cartels more power to abuse and censor the internet.

It also come about a month after Megaupload took Universal Music to court for abusing the DMCA. Its clearly that this cartels control our government and they attack seize and shutdown web sites without trial or due process. So why do we need SOPA so to make it more mainstream to censor and support archaic business models?

We al know that the only reason the MPAA & RIAA has so much power is because our elected official like their reported and unreported contributions and perks. If we lived in an idea world and by ideal I mean honest our elected official will look after the citizens and not what they can win by making favors.
