In what is believed to be the first case of its kind in the world, the Australian music industry has listed an Internet service provider as a respondent in a court case involving alleged music piracy.
The music industry has moved to include two directors and an employee of ISP Com-Cen as respondents in its Federal Court case against the MP3 trading Web site, mp3s4free.net.
Users from several universities and government agencies, including the Department of Defence, Monash University, the US Department of Justice and Harvard University, accessed the controversial Web site mp3s4free.net last year, a witness said during a court case yesterday.
The music industry has succeeded in having a director and an employee of an ISP added to a court case against a Web site allegedly offering illegal music files.
A music industry piracy body has asked ombudsmen in three states to investigate the conduct of universities involved in court action over alleged use of the institution's networks to breach copyright.
