		<description>the actual topic of my article is how companies like amazon promote (apparently) pirated dvds and earn revenue from the sale of these (apparently) pirated goods.

it has nothing to do with p2p.</description>

		<description>Gah. I no for make myself clear...

It&#039;s hard to police (Amazon&#039;s) &quot;stores&quot; without the physical product in hand, as compared to some link. My bad.</description>

		<description>OMG. Why is this even news? Of any sort?

That there is a link to some shady item on a website? 0h n0es! Say it ain&#039;t so, Joe!

Amazon&#039;s own &quot;stores&quot; have always been full of Region-0 bootlegs, especially in the Anime department. That there is a link to some company selling unlicensed DVDs is no different than a search engine linking to a site where you can download a torrent so you can get copies of a show that isn&#039;t on DVD yet. It hard to police something like that (without physical product in hand) and it&#039;s even harder to police a link that probably was never even looked at by anyone except some drone before it got dumped into rotation.

Kwitcherbitchin. If you don&#039;t like it, don&#039;t use it. Don&#039;t say you &quot;download things from P2P networks to sample what you want&quot; and then complain when someone else is selling that same downloaded material.</description>

		<description>i just checked amazon again and the ad is still running.

i found it on this link moments ago - 18.30 CET:
http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=mozilla-20&amp;index=
blended&amp;link%5Fcode=qs&amp;field-keywords=all%20in%20the
%20family&amp;sourceid=Mozilla-search

because their sponsored links seem to be randomly
generated, here is what the ad looks like on the amazon website:
http://hidebehind.com/36BFC8&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>CONFIRMED

Just for the heck of it, I did a Google search for Amazon and the name of my father (Amazon &quot;Guillermo Venegas&quot;). I found a CD being sold with 12 songs owned by my family, on Amazon;s US and German pages. The artist/singer on the CD is also my father.

See here:

http://www.amazon.com/Guillermo-Venegas-Mi-Caba%C3%B1a-Quebradillas/dp/B000056MXA

We have never issued a license for such a CD even though the CD has been widely sold under various names at many web pages and we have never received any performer or song royalties for this recording.



Interestingly, Amazon, as all music CD dealers on the web gives no mailing address so that a cease and desist order can be sent.

Amazon, should check the stuff they sell or the integrity of their suppliers.</description>
