First of all, what the cost of the original if its affordable to all concern? and if not, u go for the substitute at ur own expense helping someone to keep his business going in return he is spoiling the real artist work and depriving him of the money acrue to him. . |

are we talking about naija CDs or all music in general? Naija albums come out with low quality packaging to max profit, if they were to bring out high quality CDs, we won't be buying albums for 150. cos then the cost of duplicating the CD might even go up to about that same price so where's the profit? again, naija artists or marketers seem to target only the local market with music sales that's why u don't find our music on iTunes, cos nigerians in naija just don't buy music online. |

Nothing be wrong with it. I live in london people still buy from top shops like HMV. AND people still buy off chinese men or download it off the internet. It has got to a time where artist even no them selves there will be people selling their cds. 1 luv |

I don't buy pirated CDs but I download music through file sharing networks like Limewire. I don't believe this is wrong. Someone buys the music, decides to share with others, I mean, it's theirs to do what they want with it. All that "No lending, hiring, public viewing , " bit is ignored. As for the piracy thing, the loss of revenue might not be that much considering the fact that most of the people who buy pirated CDs would not buy the original if the pirated ones became unavailable. Just my two pence! |
