WASHINGTON -- Technology companies may shy away from inventing new products that could be used to violate copyright laws if the U.S. entertainment industry can sue the distributors of the Grokster and Morpheus P-to-P (peer-to-peer) software packages for their users' actions, some U.S. Supreme Court justices argued Tuesday.

531 more music file sharers sued: Settlements in these cases are averaging $3,000 each. If the music industry is trying to intimidate people, it's working. I don't have Kazaa on my home machine anymore, and these news reports are a big reason why.

The recording industry sued 531 more computer users Tuesday it said were illegally distributing songs over the Internet in what has become a routine reminder that college students, teenagers and others can face expensive lawsuits for swapping music online.

European music swappers face lawsuits 12/16/2003 11:21 AM
While Canadian authorities are legalizing peer-to-peer music swapping, the IFPI, the international recording industry group, is warning that lawsuits similar to those the RIAA has filed against illegal music swappers in the U.S. are likely to start next year. Neilsen/NetRatings reports suggest that more Europeans are using services like Kazaa than Americans, with 9.35 million Europeans accessing the Kazaa network in October of this year, versus 8.24 million Americans.

copyright lawsuits 01/23/2004 02:45 AM

The Recording Industry Association of America ( RIAA ) filed more than five hundred lawsuits against filesharers for alleged copyright infringement.

Because a recent federal appeals court decision prevents subpoenas citing the Digital Millennium Copyright Act from being issued prior to the filing of lawsuits, defendants were identified only by their IP addresses pending subpoenas being issued to their ISPs.

This appears to be a successor to last year's subpoena campaign , which probably helped reduce aggregate file-trading in 2003 .

Music Industry Looks East to Tackle
Piracy 04/12/2005 06:10 AM
Music firms are launching their first lawsuits in Asia as the crackdown on net piracy continues. The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry announced this morning it had filed 963 lawsuits, with some of them in Japan. Other countries targeted this time round include the Netherlands, Finland, Ireland and Iceland.

Music sales in Japan have fallen by nearly a third in the past five years - the country has the world's second-largest market for music. John Kennedy, IFPI chairman and chief executive, said: "The industry has decided this is the time to act. The Japanese are law-abiding citizens and it may be this delivers the short, sharp jolt that we need there."

The lawsuits come as legal online alternatives such as Napster and iTunes continue to expand. The industry is also calling for ISPs to take a more pro-active approach by going after those who illegally upload material themselves.
