The CD piracy grows for already 20 years in our local market. The
music lovers prefer buying cheap CDs with law quality than more
expansive CDs which are protected by the authorized rights. Today
Jivan Gasparyan speaking about this problem on the press conference
remembered an episode where his fans have tried to get his autograph
on a CD where even was not played his duduk, while it was presented
as the work of the master.
"They make records other people and put my name on them, then they
sell it. They steal the records for 20 years already," J. Gasparyan
said noticing that this is the problem of all the artists.
Accroding to him the authors of the false CDs have powerful patrons.
"It's an awful anarchy."
According to J. Gasparyan the reason of the occurred situation is
the absence of the law which could define sanctions for such kind
of "robbery". He also hoped that the question will get any solution
after being discussed in the committee of science, education, culture,
youth and sports issues.
