Disney Blames Apple For Music Piracy

Posted by pudge on from the ripping-is-only-for-pirates dept.

Vishniac writes "It looks like Disney CEO Michael Eisner is accusing Apple in part for fostering music piracy, particularly with its 'Rip, Mix, Burn' campaign. Testifying before the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee, Eisner said that the ad suggests to people that 'they can create theft if they buy this computer.' Apple? iMac? Impossible."

    Actually, I believe this is an official position of the National Organization for Women.
