Does this mean the Kenyan Telco / ISP has evaded paying the musicians but
earned from bandwidth used to download their music?

My own observation / opinion is that Telcos (like most organizations) in
Kenya do not promote or market ethics in their own sales & marketing
departments. This could be the work of a rogue employee.

Management may not be using their CRM to keep track of the marketing
campaigns going on.

Alex and All

There is a clear case of Intermediary Liability here. Especially the
Telco/ISP  that sent promotional SMSs urging people to download music
forlorn WAPKID.

Maybe Victor can help here..

Kioko, keep up the good fight. The issue of piracy is a sticky one and one
that puts money in the wrong hands.
