The dark side of piracy is capitalism violently enforced by the state.

Yes, really interesting is when pirated album was shared before release it was selling more physical copies. I have heard it to be true elsewhere too, that piracy boost music sales.

I'm not saying i agree with the video title, i can't do anything about that. I liked this documentary so much and i thought others in this community would enjoy it too.
