More, MORE Pirates!

The person to whom you would normally complain about a pirate site offering free downloads of your books is the registrant who owns the domain.

The registrant of the domain offering free downloads of our books at, http://megauploadbot.com, is:

Please note: the registrant of the domain name is specified
in the "registrant" field. In most cases, GoDaddy.com, Inc.
is not the registrant of domain names listed in this database.


Registrant:
erdem baysal
adnan kahveci bulv. yagmur
istanbul, 34180
Turkey

Registered through: GoDaddy.com, Inc. (http://www.godaddy.com)
Domain Name: LYRICSTO.COM
Created on: 14-May-09
Expires on: 14-May-11
Last Updated on: 13-Oct-09


Again he Registered through GoDaddy, but they do not own the domain, OR have any control over the content thereof. Some guy in Turkey owns it and he says he is only providing a search engine, not the free downloads and has made provisions to prevent improper downloads as quoted earlier from his customer service agreement.

He has no control over the people who lie to him in order to get something for nothing. In doing so they do risk having their information. If someone steals it, should we cry for them?

People who expect to get something for nothing on the Internet usually get what they deserve.
