[…] This indie band got it right, as posted on Boing Boing. I just loved that. Finally a band did not make me instantly hate them for their attitude on internet piracy. And you know, I would actually listen were I the owner of that Promo CD. Take that, Sony. […]

Unless Matmos manage to get some radio play, there’s a good chance that they’re harming themselves, or would be if it weren’t for the publicity of this note itself.

I’m definitely going to consider the words of the bandmembers on a handwritten postit note than I will some blaring legal advisory or that silly FBI Anti Piracy logo. […]

Hey, new concept in marketing: every band member writes individual notes and then tell journalists and fans to collect the set!

Make Them Beg
A lot of people think it’s cool that indie band Matmos did this: begged recipients of their promo CD not to post tracks on the internet. I don’t think it’s so great. Because they shouldn’t have to ask. Because as soon as some…

[…] aber irgendwie nett, die Idee, mal darum zu bitten, daß eine CD nicht weiterverbreitet wird, anstatt sie durch unsinnige und ärgerliche Maßnahmen (wie zum Beispiel Rootkits) zu “schützen”. […]

[…] Indie label uses heartfelt note instead of DRM. While I think the ‘war against piracy’ is a worthless endever, these guys have found a way to make downloading albums less attractive: by being nice about it. […]
