Sharman Networks chief executive officer, Nikki Hemming, claims yesterday's Federal Court decision has justified the company's claims that the surprise raids of Sharman premises were "heavy handed" tactics.
Sharman Networks and MIPI will be back in Federal court Friday for yet another legal contest over access to evidence that was confiscated in raids last February.
The Australian music industry's piracy investigations body has slammed new research on digital file sharing as "misguided", saying the survey fails to take into account the "property rights" of music owners.
Three allied consumer groups were told today they'll have to wait before their application to join the battle between Sharman Networks and various Australian record labels is considered.
Sharman Networks, parent company of the peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing software Kazaa, are rejoicing at the US court ruling that found two similar P2P programs, Grokster and Morpheus, do not violate US copyright law. However, the company concedes that the ruling is unlikely to have any effect on the music copyright infringement case currently underway in Australia.
