Wow, the freetards are getting desperate. They see their hopes and dreams ready to slip away. Might as well jump in front of a train now.

http://techcrunch.com/2010/09/29/mc-...runch-disrupt/ he owns an upstart record label which focus on promoting artist using new technology. he is easily bringing 2-3 million a year from his old songs just from the VC convention circuit. and that doesn't include the money his is making from investments, and his side business. i bet he his clearing way more per year then black monsters is with is |

he is against it because his new venture is a search engine. hardly an unbiased participant.

http://searchenginewatch.com/article...Engine-WireDoo it just one of his ventures he actually on both sides of the equation his record company suffers from piracy, his search engine benefits from an open web. you can bet his copyright side is worth way more money to him right now yet he still came down against sopa.( especially since wiredoo is still in pre-beta draining money stage) http://wiredoo.com/global/signup.html Quote:
he is probably the best example of an unbiased source of info, because he is on both sides of the equation. He would want copyright protection for his record company/tv company, but at the same time want to make sure the law doesn't go so far that it would kill his search engine. The fact that he comes out against sopa means it unbalanced. unlike google (pro internet) or RIAA (pro copyright) who are by definition one sided, mc hammer is actually a balanced view point because he benefits from BOTH sides of the equation. |

Lots of people go bankrupt and still are successful, later on. I'm sure you are aware of that.
Now, I'd be satisfied if he'd stop doing diss records (like the Jay-Z song).

so you made the arguement we shouldn't listen to him because he was going bankrupt
when he actually rich enough to buy and sell you over 100 x easy. what your point now that you have been proven to be a lying scumbag that we should listen to him because he built himself up from zero (bankrupt) to 100x greater then you. |

And what you're all forgetting is that MC Hammer owes his own succes to piracy. He used that Superfreak song from Rick James for "can't touch this". Did he ever write and create his own music or was sampling all he could do?

The suit was settled out of court when Hammer agreed to credit James as co-composer and if you know anything about the song Stanley Burrell (MC HAMMER) wrote the lyrics Alonzo Miller wrote the melody (music) so that settlement was basically MC hammer keeping 100% of his royalties and Alonzo Miller Splitting his. If you were MC hammer and you got to avoid all the legal expense of a trial you were entitled to win, and it cost you nothing to do it (and avoid all the bad press of "ripping off" a legend) how stupid would you have to be to not settle. |

thousands of people (including the estate of a dead person, and a blind person) paid up because it was cheaper to settle then to fight. Two live crew suffered 2 years of bad press, even though the supreme court ultimately ruled in their favour. |
