What is music piracy?
Music piracy is generally described as the
deliberate infringement of copyright and/or trade marks for commercial
gain. It covers both physical and internet piracy. There are three types
of physical piracy:
Simple piracy - the packaging of the pirate
copy is different from the original. They are often compilations, such
as the "greatest hits" of a specific artist, or a collection of a
specific genre, such as dance tracks
Counterfeits - the packaging of the pirate copy
resembles the original as closely as possible. The record companies'
trade marks are reproduced in order to mislead the consumer into
believing that they are buying an original product.
Bootlegs - these are the unauthorised recordings of live or broadcast performances.
So, lets we put our hands together to stop this nasty work....
