A federal judge in Los Angeles has handed a stunning court victory to file-swapping services Streamcast Networks and Grokster, dismissing much of the record industry and movie studios' lawsuit against the two companies.
Sharman Networks, owner of the popular Kazaa software and file-swapping service, has charged the movie and music industries with antitrust violations.
The Bush administration's top lawyer and the Christian Coalition threw their weight behind the entertainment industry Monday in a closely watched Supreme Court fight over file swapping.
File-swapping company Grokster has agreed to stop distributing its peer-to-peer software, following a US$50 million legal settlement announced Monday in the United States with Hollywood studios and record labels.
The U.S. Department of Justice said Tuesday that three men pleaded guilty to criminal copyright infringement, as part of what attorneys called the largest multinational Net piracy investigation to date.
