RIAA tries, and fails, to shaft video lampoon

p2pnet news | RIAA News | P2P:- Risking p2pnet’s sanctity (thanks, Viacom) in her endless search for YouTube videos to awe and inspire you, my daughter, Emma, came across Peter Coffin’s hilarious satire, The RIAA Lawsuit Conspiracy.
When I checked it out last night, it’d racked up some 3,320 or so visits but when I went there at 6:20 AM this morning, it was at 3,324.
But the low number was because it’d been taken down by order, I have little doubt, of Vivendi Universal, EMI, Warner Music and Sony BMG’s RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), or associates.
Now, all you see is, “We’re sorry, this video is no longer available.”
Aw shucks \:
But wait!
This is the Net and no matter how hard The Powers that Used To Be try to stop us from seeing stuff they don’t want us to see, and hearing stuff they don’t want to hear, it’s out in CyberSpace somewhere, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to find it.
Thus, I quickly found other posts of Coffin’s corporate music industry video lampoon.
The example below is on DailyMotion and to give you a taste >>>
Someone’s deactivated the Digital Rights Management! We’re selling songs without protection!
—- says the guy in a white lab coat
Well, that was actually ———— us. And what the hell are you talking about your laboratory running tests and what are you wearing a scientist coat for!? You’re a LAWYER!
—- says the suit-behind-the-desk.
Because no one calls the scientist a liar unless they’re talking about, evolution or manufactured climate change
—- says the guy in a white lab coat
And it gets funnier. And a lot more pointed.
The message to the RIAA and the MPAA and all the other so-called trade organisations set up by corporate cartels to flim-flam us cash cow consumers?
Better watch out !!!
(Cheers, Emma

Maybe Emma is getting an education in some of the facts of life, as a few of Peter Coffin’s videos are not exactly polite family entertainment. ¦o)

She didn’t go to his site — just to YouTube.
Cheers!
