Hello.

Today we received an e-mail requesting the removal of one of your songs which we have been forced to do as we really do not feel like getting into a legal battle over this.

Our office represents, the Church of Scientology International ("CSI")a non-profit corporation located in Los Angeles, California, regarding intellectual property matters.

Our client has authorized us to send you this notification of copyright infringement that is occurring through your system and request that the offending web site be removed immediately.

I. Identification of Copyrighted Work

1. Photograph Mr. David Miscavige" (Chairman of the Board RTC) located under the following URL:

http://www.stationmp3.com/enturbulator/songs/David's_golden_voyage.jpg

The photograph of Mr. Miscavige is taken from the publication International Scientology News Magazine, copyrighted by Church of Scientology

International, Issue 2, 1996 at page 7.

This copyrighted work has been posted on your web site without the authorization of our client. As such, his conduct violates United States copyright law. We request that this work be removed immediately.

II. Illegal Use of Abusive, Defamatory, Vulgar, Obscene, Profane and Otherwise Objectionable Content

In addition to engaging in copyright infringement, this same stationMP3 subscriber has placed abusive, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, profane and otherwise objectionable content on his web page on stationMP3's web site which encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, gives rise to civil liability and is violative of the law.

This content includes graphic descriptions of perverted sexual acts, bodily functions and such other pornographic, obscene and vulgar, defamatory content which targets certain officials of the Scientology religion, Mr. L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of the Scientology religion and even one of the lawyers in our firm, Helena Kobrin. This content can be found under the following URL: http://www.stationmp3.com/stationMP3/publicuser/downloadform.cfm?dwn=12514 javascript:opensongwindow(12514)

We request that these be removed immediately.

I have a good faith belief, and in fact know for certain, that the posting of the copyrighted work by your subscriber on his web page was not authorized by my client, any agent of my client, or the law.

Sincerely, Ava Paquette Moxon & Kobrin 3055 Wilshire Boulevard Suite 900 Los Angeles, California 90010

LOL!!! These stupid fucks don't seem to understand us at all. The funniest part to me is this:

"In addition to engaging in copyright infringement, this same stationMP3 subscriber has placed abusive, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, profane and otherwise objectionable content on his web page on stationMP3's web site which encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, gives rise to civil liability and is violative of the law."

Encouraging criminal conduct, huh? WHERE??? HOW??? What a fucking joke.

The site is still up, and the song has been slightly redone with a special "Fuck you" to Ava in the new version. The song is now called "David Miscavige is Commodore Blowjob". Remember OSA - you poke us back, and we grow. Watch what this'll bring. We swear that nothing but free speech will be used as a weapon. Can you promise the same? You're already trying to censor the CONTENT, not just the photos. The photos can be replaced and posted on ABS, you dumbasses. Stationmp3.com is not going to drop the songs once I'm careful about the photos. The intensity of the lyrics will keep increasing until the whole world knows that LRH was sodomized by Jack Parsons.

Just the fact that you had to pay a lawyer money to stifle one little song. BWAHAHAHAHA!!! The song didn't cost me a dime. There are dozens of sites like MP3.com and each one can have a dozen band pages under different names. They are all FREE!!! Can you shut them down faster than I put them up? Don't like it? Fuck off - we don't care. We'll be poking you until you're fully deflated and everyone knows you for the humorless dorks you are.

The songs will stay up, and if you make one site pull them, I'll find 2 more to host them. You know how this works - you ignore us, we'll stay at the same level. If you legitimize our music through legal action, you'll probably get us a recording contract.

You cowardly little clams - scared of a little free speech, huh? You just wait til you hear what we have on the way. I think we'll be making a song for Ava now too.

Cheers you friggin robots, El Queso
