Global Music Industry Unleashes Another Round of Lawsuits
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 11:00 AM
"More than 900 internet file-sharers were threatened with legal action on Tuesday as the global music industry stepped up its anti-piracy war. The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) announced it was launching 963 new actions in 11 countries in Europe and Asia. It brings the number of cases against internet users accused of illegally uploading music to 11,552 worldwide."
It looks like the RIAA doesn't hold a monopoly on suing members of it's country for sharing music. Thankfully, it's not something I have to worry about. Not that I use P2P networks that often anyway. ;-) What about your country? Is sharing music legal or illegal in your country?
