A music industry piracy body has asked ombudsmen in three states to investigate the conduct of universities involved in court action over alleged use of the institution's networks to breach copyright.
The music industry is this afternoon urgently seeking a court hearing after being advised last night by lawyers for Australian universities involved in legal action over alleged online music piracy that evidence subject to a court order has been destroyed, a piracy investigator said.
The Australian Federal Police raided the University of Technology, Sydney on Wednesday this week in connection with the "AU$60 million music piracy case" currently before the courts.
Three of Australia's largest Universities today lost the battle to block the music industry from gaining access to their computer infrastructure, with the Federal Court ordering them to allow the industry's experts to gain access.
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.
