- Behind the blanket ...there is a person who hardly survives in Spain, without any possibility of getting a legal job.

"El contenido del artículo 270 del vigente Código Penal, recoge una pena de prisión de seis meses a dos años y multas que llegan a los 3.000 euros para quien distribuya sin permiso copias piratas."
"Hasta el momento de la reforma se consideraba un delito privado, es decir, los vendedores de top manta no podían ser detenidos a menos que fuesen denunciados por el titular del derecho. La policía sólo podía requisarles la mercancía.
Pero la presión ejercida por la SGAE (Sociedad General de Autores Españoles), Egeda o ACAM, respaldadas por artistas como el "exitoso" Ramoncín o la "top ventas" María Jiménez, hizo que esta vulneración se convirtiera en un delito público tal como consta en el citado artículo."“The substance of article 270 of the Penal Code in force, contains a term of imprisonment ranging from six months to two years and fines up to 3.000 euros for those who distribute pirate copies without permission.”
“Until the time of the reform, top manta was considered a private crime, which means that top manta sellers couldn´t be arrested unless they were denounced by the right´s holder. The police could only seize the goods.”
“But the SGAE (General Society of Spanish Autors) Egeda and ACAM, supported by artists such as the “successful” Ramoncín or “top selling” María Jiménez, made this breach became a public crime, as it says in that article.”
