/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Piracy swept the musical world. There was a time
when I contributed to dissemination of amateur records, considering
it as a way to spread rock music," Ian Gillan , the leader of the
legendary rock group Deep Purple told a press conference in Yerevan.
However, he said, technology provides excellent opportunities for
professional and high quality recording. "And people involved in
piracy, and those who buy their products should be aware that this is
a pure theft. This is the same as to grab a candy from a child or to
steal a TV set, " Ian Gillan said.
