A Bounty on Pirates
posted by mpawlo on Sunday November 30, @08:57AM
from the vigilantes-in-every-area-soon dept.
News Moonasar Chankar and Ajeet Praimsingh are two independent music producers in Trinidad, who has announced a bounty for any person reporting infringments of their rights. The Copyright Organisation of Trinidad and Tobago, COTT, has praised the initative.

Allison Demas, CEO of COTT states:
'This is an approach that has worked successfully in other areas and we see no reason why it should not duplicate accomplishment in the music business.'

    I doubt that there'd be the same honor system amongst pirates as there is for more serious hackers and virus makers.

    This just might work.
