Trivia
Question
of
the
Day!


A
preliminary
injunction
has
been
filed
against
pharma
bro
Martin
Shkreli
preventing
him
from
streaming
or
disseminating
copies
of
the
one-of-a-kind
album
of
which
recording
artist?


Hint:
Shkreli
paid
$2
million
for
the
exclusive
album
in
2015.
However,
he’s
had
a
heap
of
legal
problems
since
then.
The
DOJ
seized
his
assets
to
cover
his
debts
and,
in
2021,
he
sold
the
album
to
PleasrDAO
for
$4
million.
Included
in
PleasrDAO’s
purchase
was
the
exclusive
right
to
play
the
audio
tracks
and
to
exploit
the
recordings
as
well
as
the
copyrights.
In
2022,
Shkreli
revealed
he
retained
digital
copies
of
the
album,
resulting
in
litigation
by
PleasrDAO
and
the
current
preliminary
injunction.
