BPI Sue AllOfMp3 In British Courts

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the just-try-and-make-it-stick dept.

Ckwop writes "AllOfMp3 is getting sued by the British Phonographic Industry. From the article: "We have maintained all along that this site is illegal and that the operator of the site is breaking UK law by making sound recordings available to UK-based customers without the permission of copyright owners. Now we will have the opportunity to demonstrate in the UK courts the illegality of this site." " The issue of course will be whether any injunction will be enforceable or not.

    The Russians at AllOfMP3 are claiming that they'll comply with Russian copyright law changes coming in September, which makes all these kinds of claims against them moot.

    What are those legal changes? None of the articles discussing them that I've seen have mentioned the law or what it does.
