| Trivia |
- The scene where the detective shows the kids various examples of what their piracy has done is a spoof on "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens.
- There is an actual Christian Boy Band called Plus 1.
- Metallica are notorious opponents of music piracy. In 2000, they attempted to sue both the Napster file-sharing network and several US universities for not blocking the download of Metallica songs. The result was a public relations disaster for the band, who were the subject of dozens of online parodies of an ageing rock band that appeared to be selfish and out of touch with it's fans.
- Token's bass is fashioned after the bass Rudy played in the cartoon series Fat Albert some 25 years ago.
- Cartman on the bus writing lyrics onto his palm is taken from 8 Mile, when Eminem does the same thing on his way to a rap contest.
- This is the second time Capitol Records in Hollywood has been parodied. In "Chef Aid" it was called Capitalist Records, but didn't have the distinctive record-stack shape shown in this ep. Here it has the record-stack shape, but is called Faith Records.
