It is possible to trace users sharing unlicensed music files through their IP address, the Federal Court was told today by the first witness called by the major music labels today on their civil case against peer to peer software provider Sharman Networks.
Sharman Networks has called former Napster expert witness Justin Tygar to give his testimony during the ongoing trial against the peer to peer software provider for alleged copyright infringement.
Sharman Networks' expert witness has revealed that the Kazaa Media Desktop and FastTrack system will continue to spread even if both systems were to be shut down.
Overriding severe objections from Sharman Networks' counsel, Federal Court Justice Murray Wilcox allowed an anti-piracy services provider based in New York to give evidence at the civil trial against owners of the peer-to-peer software Kazaa.
Sharman Networks' chief technology officer has refuted a claim on the Kazaa Web site that the company could "permanently bar" users who are using its peer-to-peer software to distribute child pornography.
