\u201cHitPiece appears to be little more than a scam operation designed to trade on fans\u2019 love of music and desire to connect more closely with artists, using buzzwords and jargon to gloss over their complete failure to obtain necessary rights.

While the operators appear to have taken the main HitPiece site offline for now, this move was necessary to ensure a fair accounting for the harm HitPiece and its operators have already done and to ensure that this site or copycats don\u2019t simply resume their scams under another name.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>Ken Doroshow, RIAA Chief Legal Officer<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","post_title":"NFT Platform HitPiece Receives Cease And Desist Letter From Recording Industry Association","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"nft-platform-hitpiece-receives-cease-and-desist-letter-from-recording-industry-association","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-04-11 12:55:43","post_modified_gmt":"2023-04-11 02:55:43","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.thedistributed.co\/?p=3413","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"total_page":false},"paged":1,"class":"jblog_block_13"};
