“My next door neighbor is an Iranian immigrant who came here in 1977. He just received a SAT phone call from his brother in Tehran who reports that the rooftops of nighttime Tehran are filled with people shouting ‘Allah O Akbar’ in protest of the government and election results.

They are alleged to have placed their own music on iTunes, the Apple music store, and Amazon, and used stolen credit card details to buy it. It is claimed they generated about £450,000 in download sales with stolen card details - even catching the eye of music industry chiefs as a new emerging talent.” —
