Yeah, but I'm sure as all Pirate parties have found out over time, there's a certain positive way to word things that always gets a positive response, as opposed to wording that can seem aggressive to some. Our major word shifting is like turning "internet filtering" into "internet censorship" which infuriates the Government because it shows it in a negative light, because, it is exactly what it is. You have to play by the media's rules, basically.<br>

Hi Brendan. You are right, even though that was just a way to cut it short. For example on our website manifesto there is nothing like that. Pro-piracy is just to mean we believe file sharing is not an issue but a value. However Music magazines should be interested and promote new systems for music instead of censoring them cause they clash with their profits.<div>

Perhaps you need to market yourself a little better. Say you support "file sharing culture" and you reject the concept of 'intellectual property', and run from there. Or at least, instead of saying "pro-piracy", say "a model that is directly supported and enhanced by file sharing". It's all about the delivery. <br>

Below you have a clear example about how media and music industry is totally fucked up.<div>They refused to publish a news about an alternative model for music cause it states "pro-piracy". Something you'd not expect by an independent journalist.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Reasons IMO (by direct experience in this businness since '98):</div><div>1) they fear to lose their pre-scheduled articles, interviews etc they usually sell in change of advertisements bought by labels</div>
<div>2) they know that piracy is making useless their role of "suggesting" music simply cause people don't give a fuck about reviews when they can listen to it directly on the web</div><div>3) There are some magazines that are run directly by record labels</div>
<div>4) They just can't realize the entire world is changing around them and there's a new generation of pirates that is gonna take over very soon ;)</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div><br></div><div>Victor</div>
