People should not be criminalised for the file-sharing of copyrighted material if they are not profiting from doing so, the European Parliament has recommended.
A multimillion-dollar settlement is putting Kazaa on the straight and narrow, but it might not be enough to put the file-sharing service on the road to recovery.
Sharman Networks has announced it will appeal a Federal Court ruling that several respondents associated with the company had authorised infringement of music industry copyright and that it must introduce filters to the Kazaa file-sharing software.
The Australian Record Industry Association (ARIA) is moving ahead with plans to develop a chart for downloaded tracks, but its launch has been delayed because of the reluctance of some online retailers to participate.
The music industry piracy investigations unit has blasted the Kazaa software after the release of the 2005 digital music report from International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI).
