“These illegal sites have been going on for far too long. They need to be stopped so artists and labels can earn from an already tough industry.”
DAN MCKIE, Label Owner
1980 Recordings
James Carson, Record Label Owner/Producer:
"Royalties don't even cover cost of running label. Piracy hurts. "
Tom Lawson aka Uphonix, Producer, DJ, label owner:
"Whenever a new release comes out for my label, it pains me to see the music available on these sites! People who use them may think it's okay because they are paying a membership fee, but they need to understand that artists / labels are not seeing a penny."
Danny Lewis, Label Manager:
"Now more than ever we need DJs to respect copyright globally and pay for the music they enjoy and broadcast. To foster new talent and invest back into our scene we need piracy to stop."
Anthony Huang, Owner:
"Nearly all of our releases end up on pirate sites after we begin sending out promos. We're glad to see someone stepping in, taking charge, and finding solutions to bring money back to content creators."
