,----[ Quote ]
| In apparent despair at the levels of music piracy in Nigeria, a collection of 
| music industry groups are hoping to attract the attention of the country’s 
| president by taking drastic measures. They hope that broadcasters will soon

| calling for a “mass hunger strike”.

| Software Foundation, Ray Beckerman (NewYorkCountryLawyer), and NYCL's

| pages longer than the document to which it was responding — termed the FSF an
| organization 'dedicated to eliminating restrictions on copying,
| redistribution, and modifying computer programs', and accused the FSF of
| having an 'open and virulent bias against copyrights' and 'blatant bias'
| against the record companies.
