Would you like some irony with that karma...?

Oh, the irony. A musicians’ rights group in the Netherlands was fined this week for stealing music from a client, using it without his permission and failing to pay royalties.
more...
Even though I do support copyrights and the importance of observing the law, I do find these groups a bit heavy handed.... So I will admit this story does bring a smile to my lips.

Is this a repeat story, or am I just having a serious case of deja vu? I could've swore that I read this same story some time ago, but I really can't remember.

Either way, I think that this is hilarious.

It is, the past story was that they where being sued for copyright violations(piracy). This story is that they've lost the suit and have been fined.

Ah. Ok. Just making sure I wasn't completely losing my mind (not that anybody would be able to tell otherwise).

Same story, different news source, earlier in this forum

Sorry, I've just realised that the thread above would have been posted after this one.

No worries this isn't the newest of story and these types of stories are posted almost immediately.

I was surprised nobody had posted this prior to me but I find it a bit humorous that somebody posted this shortly after I did.
