Kazaa will soon be the most popular free program on the Web as it surpasses ICQ, according to owner Sharman Networks.
Sharman Networks has rejected claims from the music industry that it can identify the difference between copyright infringing and legitimate file-sharing on its network, a crucial step towards the company gaining the capacity to block illegal file-sharing.
At an open meeting Wednesday of a peer-to-peer forum backed by the parent company of Kazaa, the discussion will turn to a seemingly improbable concept: how to eliminate piracy from file-swapping networks.
Lawyers representing Sharman Networks today informed the Federal Court of Australia they intended to challenge the validity of the court order which resulted in raids on several premises last week.
The recent raids by Australian record labels were so disruptive they may have caused the deferral of the court case of their US parent companies.
In order to get the real picture behind the US-Australia free trade agreement, one needs to examine the document with a fine-tooth comb. Of particular interest is how Australia will have to model its laws after the US Millennium Copyright Act.
KaZaA's gotten a lot of bad press lately for ethically dubious software bundling schemes. Is the application behind the furore worth checking out?
Computer and telecommunications companies are allying with file-swapping service Kazaa in a bid to overhaul the way record labels are paid for music and other content distributed on the Net.
Despite the RIAA's efforts to shut down file-swapping services, these 10 apps carry Napster's torch.
