Filesharers respond to France's RIAA


Last week, we posted news of a
fuck-you to filesharers from France's equivalent to the RIAA: an extended middle finger, with the tagline "Free Music Has a Price."

Now, BoingBoing pal Jean-Luc sends us this "response logo" (shown at left) from a group of online freedom of speech advocates in France. The tagline? "Culture has no price / Don't buy any CDs." Weblogs throughout France are displaying the logo as a gesture of solidarity against the SNEP (Syndicat National de l'Edition Phonographique) anti-P2P campaign. "You sell us mediocre music at exorbitant prices," the banner exclaims in French, "Reduce the price of CDs, and start placing a higher priority on the quality of artists instead of the quantity of money you're cramming in your pockets." Sacre blog!
