when an american refers to america refers as america, it is with he certainty that every country will eventually be called america anyways.

just struck me as sort of funny the way its quoted. this thing, "america"... the so-called ""
The worst offenders are restaurants and bistros around where I live. They can never, ever figure out where quotation marks go.
The bistro around the corner of my workplace advertises "stew" every other week. Like hell I'm touching stew that's put in quotation marks! "Today" is another favorite. I guess because it's relative of the time-zone or planet or something?
Exactly what I was thinking! Reminds me of The "blog" of "unnecessary" quotation marks.
But back to the topic at hand, what amazes me about this type of plagiarism on the web is that these people are actually dumb enough to think they're really going to get away with it. Like the criminals who are too dumb to pull off their own heist, bank robbery, liquor store hold up, etc....

He spammed his album here, but I can't comment: http://en-gb.facebook.com/pages/Chiptun

He has a single for sale up on iTunes, but I can't preview because iTunes is stupid: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/ljn-single/id395801572
I guess this is his other bandcamp account: http://firestarman.bandcamp.com/
Wait, didn't that one pop up before? I think I remember something about it. Can't find a thread, but I remember the guy got busted before because of a stolen Lady Gaga cover or something.
Edit: Yeah, I think the thread was nuked in one of the 8bc hickups. Someone with a better track/artist memory should check the two releases there and report them if something stolen is on them

I want to download it, this whole ordeal's probably making it a collector's item.
Respect to rez. I was stunned when I heard "Subatomic" on his 8bc the other day and recognized it from this guy's album. Why do people do this? The best I can come up with is that he figured there was no way anyone would make the connection. My advice would be not to steal from one of the biggest names in chiptune next time. Actually, don't steal at all. It makes you an asshole. No wonder he was sleeping on people's floors.
