Most Nigerians have no problems cheating and conning producers of creative works by buying pirated CDs, but they are usually the first to accuse people like Bishop Oyedepo and Reverend Adeboye of scamming their congregation.

So who is deceiving whom really?

What makes you believe our artistes are original. They are not original my brother. They don't respect copyright contents. They skew the original and make them look like their IP (Intellectual Property). They are in a vicious cycle.

may not be but this is a moral issue.
Why would people buy pirated CDs,
download ringtones from the Telcos and
stuff like that when the artistes are not
getting anything in return?
Bad!

What is the difference btw pirated and original CD? Are they not both CDs? And are they not reproduced with the same process? No be the same songs they the two? Why should I waste my time and enegy searching for origin CD when I can get it close to me with more than 90% discount in price?
Check it out
Original, . . . . . . . N1700. . . . . . . . Out of reach
Pirated. . . . . . . . . N100. . . . . . . . . within rech everywhere

Audio: why should i buy original cd when its only one or two tracks that i want to listen to,

Video: i won't even buy any, until they start editing their movies. don't tell me they do, 5% of Nigerian movies are edited, subtitles could be so annoying sometimes too

Ok guys, from our replies so far, we can deduce that the reason why we buy pirated CD's is because of proximity and cost. I am talking only about our local artists in music and home movies for now; So what if we knew where to buy these original CD's around our area and the prices are affordable, would we discipline ourselves to patronize the originals and join the fight against piracy?

actually, I don't buy pirated cds. I just download the songs.
mainly because I don't find the cds I like and when I find it's very expensive

Depends on the CD, some songs you might want to listen to forever, you go for Original CDs, for those that are just a passing phase, abeg cheap pirated would do! And those of you that don't know where to get the Original CD's from you can always order online from amazon, ebay etc, through www.circuitatlantic.com.
Re: Why Do You Buy Pirated Cd's? Share Your Reason by erico2k2(m): 9:59pm On Dec 20, 2011
well from my own point of view pirated CD account for %10 as someone earlier said above, Artist colect yx amount of money from a guy in Alaba who produce and flood teh street with the music o n CDs, no dont get it twisted the so called fake and original copies sell same ammount ie N100 per CD cso its never gonna be cheaper now I think that takes away the issue of cheapness out of this equation, how about proximity,I will say yeh that too as there are no clear cut marketting struction for music in9ja but then again what do you expect from a country where up and coming Artist have to pay monies/bribes to Radios stations/DJ to air the debute or solo album eh?
Re: Why Do You Buy Pirated Cd's? Share Your Reason by daisy28: 2:26pm On Dec 21, 2011

Re: Why Do You Buy Pirated Cd's? Share Your Reason by Oletunow(m): 5:16am On Dec 22, 2011
It depends on your definition of 'Pirated Music' in Nigeria.

The real question is actually, where do one goto in Nigeria to buy an original Music CD? Definitely not directly from the artist, and how do you know that the CD you just bought from the store is not high quality fake?

The truth is, the pirated ones are far more easy to get, cheaper.

Original = 1700, pirated = 100. To solve it mathematically using this formula original - pirated = change, it gives 1700 - 100 = 1600 therefore change = 1600 ans. Hope u got the math?.
