Lime Wire vs labels: pizza edition
Friday, July 3rd, 2009
If you can’t get even, get mad. And then get away with their fast food.
US label Dovecote Records has posted an account on its blog of accidentally filching pizza in a bar that belonged to a company having an event there. Cue someone allegedly shouting at them “You STOLE our pizza… You can’t steal other people’s things. You can’t take what’s not yours.” The company in question? Lime Wire.
Cue Dovecote outrage, an attempt to make off with an entire pizza, and an (again, allegedly) aggressive laptop-beer-drenching.
Obligatory disclaimers: we’ve only heard the label’s side, and it should be noted that Lime Wire has a legal music store these days that sells music by indie labels very much like Dovecote. In fact, it may even sell music by that label.
Even so, for an anecdote containing the retort “Well when are you going to figure out how to download pizza into my stomach?”, we love it.
