| Lets Fight Piracy | | 2008-07-07 13:13:30 | | Saya kecewa dengan tingkah polah copy-paste content sesama blog peserta kompetisi, baik itu ditujukan untuk mengikuti kompetisi yang sama, ataupun untuk sekedar mengais dollar dari sana. Sungguh saya benci itu. Saya benci ketika ada seseorang memutuskan untuk menjadi orang jahat-nya, meski tanpa dia tidak akan pernah ada orang yang berdiri di sisi baik-nya.

| Radio is piracy too | | 2008-06-24 12:04:50 | | Utter sheer amazement, the sad part is that it is perfectly true, the music industry is all over radio right now to pay royalties for the first time ever; saying not to pay the artists for air time is tantamount to piracy.
The interesting part, read the wired story here, is that while Rome burns [...] | | By: techwag | | |

| | Sony Finds Way To Profit From Music Piracy | | 2008-05-14 23:23:27 | | If I was a betting man I would put my money on the internet having a hand in the eventual downfall of the studio system. While the studios' approach to innovation has been to threaten it with legal action, the rest of the world happily embraces technology. Which is ironic since the studios were once at the forefront of moving picture technology. But I guess once the money starts rolling in it's hard to walk away from the table and look for a new game. Well, it looks like Sony/BMG just got back into the technology game.Here's the email that some YouTube members (that illegally uploaded the song "Float On") received from Sony/BMG this week:
Dear YouTube Member:Sony BMG has claimed some or all visual content in your video Float On. This claim was made as part of the YouTube Content Identification program.Your video is still live because Sony BMG has authorized the use of this content on YouTube.

A spokesman for Alibaba.com, the local partner that manages Yahoo's China arm, said he had not seen the ruling and could not comment on it. But the spokesman, Porter Erisman, said Yahoo China hoped to reach an agreement with music companies to create a licensed download service.China is a leading source of pirated copies of music, movies and other goods.

| | Microsoft softens on anti-piracy measure | | 2007-12-05 08:09:00 | | Microsoft softens on anti-piracy measureJESSICA MINTZAssociated PressDecember 4, 2007 at 8:00 AM ESTSEATTLE — Microsoft Corp. is pulling back from a system that disables programs on users' computers if it suspects the software is pirated, opting instead for a gentler approach based on nagging alerts.Microsoft said late Monday it will roll out the new version of Windows Genuine Advantage with the first “service pack” for Windows Vista, due in the first quarter of 2008.When computer users activate a copy of Windows Vista or try to download certain software from Microsoft's Web site, the Windows Genuine Advantage system scans their PCs for signs of pirated software. Today, if the tool finds an unauthorized copy of Vista, the glassy Vista user experience disappears and other features are suspended.In the new version, PC users found to have a pirated copy of Vista will continue to be able to use their computers, but with unmistakable signs their operating system is a fake. The desktop wallpaper will turn black, and a white notice will appear alerting users to the problem. Each time they log in, they will be prompted to buy legitimate software, and every hour, a reminder bubble will appear on the screen.Users with a high tolerance for irritation can put off switching to genuine software indefinitely, but those who relent and buy a real copy of Windows can do so at reduced prices — $119 for Windows Vista Home Premium, half the regular retail price.“We want to make sure unwitting victims get a great treatment,” said Mike Sievert, a corporate vice president in Microsoft's Windows marketing group.Windows Genuine Advantage collects several pieces of information about a PC during the check, including the serial number on the hard drive and its IP address, but Sievert says none of that can be used to identify individual PC users.In August, the Windows Genuine Advantage team at Microsoft accidentally updated its servers with computer code that wasn't quite ready f | | By: PC and Technology - tips, reviews and how to's | | |
| | Nintendo against Piracy | | 2007-09-18 20:44:46 | | With every products release on the market as popular as the Nintendo DS, there is always going to be some sort of piracy that will follow. But Nintendo decided to take action and begin to prosecute software pirates in South Korea. A quote by a Nintendo spokesperson outlines their intentions: “They infringed on our copyright by posting Nintendo’s game titles through the Internet without permission. The legal action was taken against only some sites and users this time but we will take further measures if such a violation continues to take place.”Source: Digital Battle Online Games Nintendo DS Wii South Korea Software pirates Piracy | | By: Online Games | | |

| | Piracy: Bootleg Loopholes | | 2007-08-03 09:05:32 | | ‘Legitimate’ stores selling counterfeit CDs, games and DVDs have been popping up all over the place recently, and I’ve always wondered how they get away with selling copied discs.
My flatmates recently bought Fight Night Round 3 from a shop called Cybermedia in Cape Town, for R100 - a fifth of the price of buying it in a mainstream CD store. Granted, the low DPI on the printing of the disc label and cover produce a slightly ‘spotty’ copy, but other than that the game is identical. We’re not talking street vendors with re-dubbed Afghan releases of Titanic.
I’d heard about the shop before, and one or two others (The Source), but I thought it was meet-someone-on-the-street-corner-and-use-a-fake-name kind of deal. I didn’t know they had a physical shop, catalogue and website. How could this be possible? Will we ever know?
Yes, we will know. Cybermedia have taken advantage of the infamous backup loophole. Basically they sell copies of th | | By: Top-notch South African eMarketing blog | | |
| | Cheap books? Thanks to piracy | | 2007-07-05 11:18:00 | | KATHMANDU, July 5 - Surprised that you can buy expensive foreign books at cheap prices in Nepal? It's not that foreign publishing houses reprint cheaper editions for Nepal. The books are dirt cheap, thanks to a growing book piracy industry in Nepal - at least one industry seems to be booming amidst the economic slump. Leading book distributors in Kathmandu say pirated books account for up to 30 percent of space in most bookstores here. And the price of the pirated version is often less than half the original price.

| | Making Money With Domain Spelling Piracy | | 2007-06-22 08:59:00 | | If you read my previous post on domain squatting, you must have developed an idea of the high earning potentials of domain names. But don't worry if you're out of luck and all the domains you want to register already belong to someone else. Domain squatting is not the only way you can make money from domain names. There's this other little scam you can use, and its called Spelling Piracy.Everybody knows the importance of traffic. Getting traffic to websites takes years and years of work. It means working hard on your content to make sure people come back to it again and again.But then like other things, there is an easier way to get traffic - and as usual, the easier way is not the kind that will earn you points with the angels.Pick a site - any famous site. How about 'nasa.gov'? Now I'm sure many of you don't even know that the official NASA site has a '.gov' extension and not '.com' extension. The same is in the case of ProBlogger.net.

| | Stopping piracy-eNidhi advices | | 2006-05-29 07:52:00 | | Software Piracy and violation of IPR (Intellectual Property Rights) is the biggest problem faced by industry today. Duplicate CDs and DVDs of popular softwares, movies and music hit market faster than original one. Because of piracy, companies and artists won’t get their due royalty, which they otherwise got had the genuine product been sold. This in turn limits industry’s monetary profit and reduces their ability to come out with quality products next time.I intend to put my views in this blog, as to what can be done to prevent privacy.The sole reason piracy has become a menace is cost advantage. If cost is cut (it can be cut, without hitting profit, I’ll illustrate how), most of the piracy can be wiped out.An illustration:Genuine copy of Microsoft Office 2007 costs around Rs 16000, an amount more expensive than the whole computer itself. While pirated copy is sold illegally for less than Rs 200. While I have full respect to Mr. Gates and his team of highly qualified Software En | | By: eNidhi - A professional amateur | | |
