    now im not starting p2p shit...but if mainstream can do it

    why cant we?


    Fort Meyers, Florida rapper Plies has become the first artist on Atlantic Records to ink a major deal involving peer-to-peer filing trading services.



    According to The New York Post, Sprint and Atlantic have with ArtistDirect?s Media Defender division to push 16 million Plies song files embedded with the Sprint logo on to peer to peer networks over a three-month period.



    In exchange for the service, a "substantial six-figure" fee will be split between Plies and his publishing company, Media Defender and Atlantic Records.



    The Sprint logo, which will be attached to the song files forever once it is embedded, will appear with Plies? name and song title on the screen of a desktop computer, iPod or cell phone, in addition to any digital music player.



    The new deal officially makes Sprint the first company to underwrite a song that will be on file-sharing networks, according to the Post.



    The deal will officially be announced in two weeks.

    The T-Pain featured "Shawty" is the lead single from Plies' forthcoming debut album The Real Testament.



    The Big Gates/Slip-N-Slide/ Atlantic Records release is slated to hit stores on Aug. 7.

        ive been hearing rumblings about this company for quite a while. When I worked for warner bros. records they were going a different route with the hiphop industry and in fact ran one of the biggest hiphop sites before its closed

          here is what media defender claims to do

          MediaDefender uses a range of non-invasive technological countermeasures employed on P2P networks to frustrate users’ attempts to steal/trade copyrighted content. We have a proven track record of adapting to challenges and successfully protecting our customers as new technologies and networks arise.

          Decoying and Spoofing are the most commonly known techniques that we employ. We send blank files and data noise that look exactly like a real response to an initiated search requests for a particular title. Pirated files will no doubt be on the networks, but with our protection applied it would be easier to find a needle in a hay stack than a real file amongst our countermeasures.

          In addition to anti-piracy solutions, MediaDefender also offers a Leak Alert service. Our industry leading Leak Team scours Newsgroups, Usenet, and BitTorrent sites to see what cracked/pirated content has most recently leaked. Upon discovery, MediaDefender will download the leak and either send it or provide a secure ftp login for customers to sample the pirated material.
