Universal Music Australia has revealed the top 100 songs that it will focus on in proceedings against peer-to-peer software distributor Sharman Networks in one of the biggest music copyright infringement cases the Australian music industry has experienced.
Despite recent controversy surrounding the peer-to-peer file sharing program Kazaa, its distributor, Sharman Networks, has announced that enduring Australian rock band The Screaming Jets will debut their new EP this month via the software.
Sharman Networks is considering applying for leave to appeal yesterday's Federal Court decision allowing the admission of evidence obtained under a civil search order to a music industry court action against it.
An Adelaide-based Telstra customer who sought AU$18 million in compensation for a dodgy landline lost his legal bid last week after the Federal Court dismissed the claim due to lack of evidence
Sharman Networks, an Internet software provider, has failed in its application to have evidence against it dismissed, forcing the company to face up to the music copyright infringement charges over its P2P music file sharing software Kazaa.
Australia's competition regulator has warned it will act to ensure technological innovations that pose a serious threat to Telstra's dominance of the telecommunications sector are not "strangled at birth".
