Former music piracy investigator Michael Speck, who spearheaded the record companies' long-running campaign to shutdown Kazaa, has joined the peer-to-peer network's business partner, Altnet.
Australia's music anti-piracy unit has finally appointed a new boss after operating with contractors and fill-ins since the last general manager departed in October 2005.
Eminem, Madonna and Kylie Minogue are just some of the popular artists whose songs are to be blocked from being illegally distributed on the peer-to-peer network Kazaa following Federal Court orders yesterday.
Any appeal by key players associated with the Kazaa file-sharing software will only be heard in February or March next year.
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.
