I hope everybody knows about the Napster lawsuit. Is it downloading nepali songs from Internet legal? Should we as a real Nepali Citizens support these kinds of activities specially in public forum like Sajha.com? When it comes to steal, get free nobody cares about other Citizens, daju bhai did bahini haru. Do you ever think of those young and old singers talent? How do they get paid and survive? How will our young music industry will survive and how long? How do you think we develop economy of our Country? Just foreign aid will not take us anywhere. We'll have to develop our self, create more job by creating new enterprenuership environment. We built our economy. Those who claims as a local leader, intelectual person and so on in this site, how can you support this kind of thread. Steal from Somebody's hard work? To me those sites are doing illegal things and nobody should support them and publicly discussed. Now you guys may argue why not? It's the result of HighTech. If you think so, then why are you pissed off or upsetand frustrated with Girija, Deouba, Maoist and some other idiots? Why should they care about you and Nepali people? They think it's the result of their politics, democracy, chair, power fight whatever they call. Should we be patriotic?

You made a valid point and I agree that we must follow the copyrights law if there is any. However, not all songs are available in cassettes/CDs as in Napster case. Ratna Recordings (which does not exits anymore) has copyrights of most of the old songs that we hear from radio nepal. So, who do you think is responsible for making these golden songs available in the market? If there is not easy access, fans have to find other ways to listen to the songs they love. I'm only talking about the songs that are not available in the market. I'm a die-hard fan of Bachchu Kailash and his songs are not in the market for sale. Some guys have put his few songs in the web from their own collections and i'm not complaining about that. If his songs are made available in the market, I would buy them at any cost. And there are hundreds of other old folk/classical songs I'm searching for. I had a chance to talk to Prakash Shrestha and Madan Krishna Shrestha when they were in tour in the US. They said they don't get any royalty from the radio nepal for playing their songs. Some FM stations have started offering a couple rupees per song played though. I was trying to get hold of one of my favorite old songs by Madan Krishna, but he said that Radio Nepal has lost the master copy of that record. He wanted to have copy of that song himself. If you guys have that song in your collection, please let me know. The song goes: 'Pasal bata biki sakeko ma manchhe Aankha bata sabko jhareko ma manchhe...' The singers, copmosers, song writers, folk song collectors, all need recognition in the first place. If their work is not recognized by the audience or is not available in the market, what's the point in talking about copyrights? And I strongly believe that if the good songs are made available in the cassettes/CDs, not many fans would depend on such low quality computer-generated songs. On the other hand, some of the sites are promoting the legends of nepali music industry.

Mitra 2, first of all if the song is not in cd/cassette, Radio Nepal does not have it, Ratna Racording is gone how do you think the song comes in the internet download. There must be some source. I don't agree with that. Ratna Recording used to be only the source about more than a decade ago not any more. There many studios, marketers etc. and working hard to market Nepali talents. Moonlight Recordings, Music Nepal, Indreni Cassettes, Studio 2000 on and on for recording Companies. There are Marketers like muncha house.com, Dhukuti.com, Net For Nepal.com Thamel.com, Spinybabbler.com so on and many physical stores in Nepal. if you're serious about supporting copyrights law in Nepal, you can buy from them very easily and inquiry with them if they sell any. Have you done that? The bottom line is we should support our industry not harm them just for our couple dollar benefit of selfishness. This is what we Nepali should start doing to built our economy, manufacturing industry, marketing etc. We should start creating within us and roll our money in Nepal locally. There's a big potential market, big talent pool but we never like to respect ourselves rather try to compare everything with west.

First of all I said I agree that we must follow copyright law. No question about that. Second of all, I said not all old songs are available in cassettes/CD and you don't agree with that. I don't know how these people have collected those songs, but they are not available in the market, not anywhere you mentioned. This shows you have very little information about old songs. >if you're serious about supporting >copyrights law in Nepal, you can buy from >them very easily and inquiry with them if >they sell any. Have you done that? You bet I have done more than that. Simply accept the fact that Bachchu Kailash's cassette is NOT available in any of the stores you mentioned. Go and search a thread about Bachchu Kailash and see what other fans are saying... Let me tell you again that I'm against copyright violence if the copy is available in the market. But, who holds the copyright of the songs that are disappearing? That's why I'm saying these song sites are not all doing the harm, but promoting singers, songs, and all. If you come back and say all songs are available for sale somewhere, I say you are WRONG. Most of the songs are with Radio Nepal. Some folks record it directly from the radio or they must have link inside the radio nepal for them to get a copy. But they are not available for general people to buy from the market. If you don't agree with this, just provide me the source where I can get it as of today.

Mitra 2, No I'm not saying all old songs are available. I was just asking whether you have tried that path too. Well may be some very old songs like you said Bachhu Kailash are exceptional. You can't find it in the market. I brought up this copyright issue, because I have seen people in this site have discussed about swaping and downloading the available songs also. That's not good. We should be the one who preserve our heritage, literature, respect and pay our talented people, support our baby music and film industry, which is one big foundation pillar of economy of country.
