Victory Records hired comic Gilbert Gottfried to star in an anti-piracy PSA where he repeatedly tells music pirates to go fuck themselves. It's hard to say where this plan went wrong. One writer noted that there's quite a a bit of irony behind the company funding a video to tell fans that they need to start purchasing music, because some say that Victory has a long history of not paying artists themselves. The arguments made in the video are terrible and don't shine any light on the number of reasons why fans file-share music. Maybe Anonymous will pay VR a visit.
Take a look at the video:
