Why this is happening here? Because this is our great Pakistan and Geo is so influential here, They just asked FIA and they caught them. I don’t think Fire Records (Geo TV) had even followed a legal procedure to take
down the songs from their websites. Had they sent Any personal complaint to website owners by Fire Records? If you check IPs of both websites, They belong to United States.

The United States People are much more serious than Fire Records regarding copyright infringements they had taken down requested songs if Fire records had sent any complaint. What happened is fire record lodged a complaint in FIA and FIA took action against the website because the complaint comes from very influential media group. I am 100% sure, non.

of the above steps have been taken to put down the content from their website.
Now I come to Fire Records stance to remove songs from websites: The songs uploaded on
websites are mostly low quality (128-256 Kb/s) while the songs on Audio CDs have bit-rates
ranging from 1000-1500 Kb/s. Do you think, If a person loves music will hear 128K ugly
songs. Never! He will go to shop and buy a good quality CD. The songs on websites are
promoting that album, you can say a free advertisement of a album by the website (Although Website Owners has no
such intention to promote the album, they just do to make money from their website) but,
It’s too much beneficial for a record. Here I want to give the example of Indian Music
Industry, They upload their songs on Youtube and also ask website owners to upload the
songs on their websites. Uploading songs over a website doesn’t hurt a music record mainly due to quality of songs.
Btw, How many of us are using legal copy of Windows? Antivirus? and Media Players? I’ve seen in banks and government offices that they are using Pirated copies of Windows. Are you going to arrest them?
I don’t know why Geo is so much barking over this issue when no body is going to listen Pakistani Music. Most of music websites has traffic from India downloading Indian Songs.
By writing this I am no way sympathizing to any Music Website neither I’m taking off rights from Fire Records But I hardly think Fire Record material would have mattered so much for any website to deny removal of content and go to jail?
You can get a lot of political shit over our Media. But have you ever listened some one talking about webmasters problems. I can not open a bank account because I’m a webmaster and can not provide a proper proof of my earnings. The shit banks don’t approve my Google Adsense online earnings statements. Why? Why I’m not allowed to get a credit card by giving a proof of my Adsense earnings? Why there is no Paypal in Pakistan being 6th largest country of world. Have our enlightened media talked about that?
I’ve too much to say being a webmaster living in Pakistan but I’m so emotional now and can not say anything else.

Honestly, if you don’t watch GEO Television aka Jew TV, everything seems so routine and normal in the country and you don’t get bouts of frustration and agony and you don’t shudder that Pakistan will be no more in coming some weeks or the country won’t be engulfed in the civil war and we will be cutting each other’s throat.

When all this GEO Terrorism started during the era of Musharraf, many of us didn’t believe and listen to the saner elements who warned us about the propaganda and the lies being churned out by some anchors and the media owners. In the flow, we lost certainty and stability and now as this government tries to fight the same issues in their own way, once again the same media group wants to dictate the terms and policy matters.

All these Shahid Masoods, Hamid Mirs, Shaheen Sehbais, Saleh Zafirs, Kamran Khans of this world were putting huge fear among the nation for some months that the December was coming and the 7th December will be cutoff date for the present regime. That date has long past. Even the expiry of NRO has passed. Even the verdict of NRO has come out. Nothing has changed on national horizon, while the same anchors are still croaking and giving new dates. Now Akram Sheikh in the program of Shahid Masood has given two weeks for the change.

Government should get a heart and just close down this propaganda machine of GEO. Nobody in the masses will shed a tear for them.
