What if someone linked to a leak of a song and then the artist who made the track?

Asked by anon30 (334points) December 18th, 2009

I was on twitter, & Tyrese (actor/singer) was saying come’ and buy his new song on iTunes, I looked @ hotnewhiphop.com & they got the leak to download free, so i was thinking, what if somebody on twitter did this “Go and download @tyrese4real (his twitter) new song” and twitted the link to the download. So Tyrese would see it.

would he be mad? or what do you think he would do?

He’d probably be pissed and might even get his attorney involved? Maybe?

sue the site or the person?

@BlockStar22 The site, because they posted the song without permission.
Though they could get the person for downloading illegally if they looked into it.

I suspect Tyrese would get his entertainment lawyer on it and try to shut the site down or sue them.

@BlockStar22 – If you really like the man’s music, then let him know by purchasing it legally through iTunes. That will help him be able to record more music.

Support the artist. Buy the music legally.

Both the site and person would be liable, and possibly every person that downloaded the song.
