Kazaa Appeal Likely In 2006
daria42 writes "Although the company behind Kazaa has already vowed to launch an appeal of yesterday's decision that it had breached music industry copyright, it now appears likely any such appeal will have to wait until early 2006. The music industry seems to think it'll be able to get billions of dollars in damages out of the company, Sharman Networks, although the amount has yet to be decided - and who knows if they can pay." From the article: "Sharman Networks is expected to lodge its request for leave to appeal before the deadline of three weeks from yesterday's decision expires. Sharman's lawyer, Mary Still, reiterated through a spokesperson today the company's position last night that it would 'appeal those parts of the decision where we were not successful' remained unchanged."
I guess there's no question who squeezed the Sharman...

...Al Gore, inventor of the Internet, is being sued by yhe MPAA, RIAA, and all other **AA's of the US for "inventing" the internet which can be used to steal copyrighted material, look at kiddie porn, and buy stuff from myunclestoehair.com. God is also apparently preparing for a legal battle based on his invention of sight, which can also be used to steal visual copyrighted works.
