[ga] Record Label Infringes Own Copyright, Site Pulled

["Jeffrey A. Williams" <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  Well here is a strange one...  I'm sure the IPC folks will be
popping yet another cork or two celebrating this one which
has been a thorn in the RIAA's side..  Censorship at it's
best, or worst?

See:
In a peculiar story from TorrentFreak, which describes the
plight of a free-download music site that has been
http://torrentfreak.com/record-label-infringes-own-copyright-site-pulled-081019/
summarily evicted from the Internet for violating its own copyright. The
problem seems to revolve around the host's insistence that proof of
copyright be snail-mailed to them. Kind of difficult when your copyright
takes the form of a Creative Commons license that cannot be verified
unless its site is up. "The website of an Internet-based record label
which offers completely free music downloads has been taken down by 
its host for copyright infringement, even though it only offers its 
own music.  Quote Unquote Records calls itself 'The First Ever Donation 
Based Record Label,' but is currently homeless after its host pulled 
the plug.
