@kasz and enditall. I take it back, he's making the right legal move, but the legal system is upside down where you guys are. Is it reasonable and fair to ask for a company to spend an assload of money to recall games due to 1 tune when there are many other options? It's an insane request from an outsider point of view.

American Legal System?  That's how pretty much any legal system works... the US is actually pretty damn lenient.  If this was anywhere in Europe or Canada they'd likely force Rockstar to recall and destroy all copies of the CD.  WHILE fining them a huge penalty for every copy not accounted for and destroyed.

Though he'll probably get significantly more now, thanks to Rockstar's fuckup.  Though yeah.  I imagine 3-4 days tops and there will be a settlement.

What will be most interesting to see is if they screwed up by themselves.  Or if a record company screwed up.  Since apparently he has all the paperwork that says he owns the rights to those songs.

Or hire gangsters to take him down for less. /jk

Well if his claims are true, a cease and desist is more than reasonable. They essentially stole from him, they stole his songs and shoved it in a product that has made over a billion dollars. If someone stole from me and made profit (even indirectly) from it, I wouldnt be concerned about their financial being from their product.

Nobody rapper upset that hes a nobody. This will never get recalled.

They'll offer another low bid, basically something just below what it costs to replace the songs in the game via a patch.

Lol, and what gangsters would do that? He's a Crip (A real one).

OT: I don't understand how some of you people think he's in the wrong in this situation. If he refused their offer and they put his songs in the game anyway, he's doing exactly what he should do. He's actually being pretty generous by giving them two weeks to fix this. Youtube doesn't even get that much time.

He's totally right, and trying to show people that it's not because Rockstar's game is great and they have money that they can do anything.

Hopefully, they think of a smarter solution than offering another low bid, or they'll be out of more money than what it would cost to pay him what he wants and patch the game combined.
