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](http://www.metalinjection.net/its-just-business/victory-records-worse-argument-antipiracy?ref=hypebot.com) 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](http://www.musicthinktank.com/blog/4-reasons-why-fans-are-file-sharing-your-music-and-why-they.html?ref=hypebot.com) why fans [file-share music](https://www.hypebot.com/4-reasons-why-fans-are-file-sharing-your-music-that-you-can-change/).
