The Internet company targeted by the music industry over alleged copyright breaches, ComCen, has denied it hosted any copyright-infringing MP3 files on its servers and claims the Web site cited in the civil action brought against it acted only as a search engine.
The Internet Industry Association has denied that negotiations between itself and various copyright holders groups over mechanisms for taking down infringing content have fallen through.
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.
Despite the official withdrawal of ARIA from talks with the IIA, other organisations representing copyright owners are continuing the talks, believing them vital to the regulation of piracy on the Internet.
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.
