Russian Court Acquits allofmp3.com Owner
An anonymous reader writes "Denis Kvasov, former owner of the music download website allofmp3.com, has been acquitted of violating intellectual property laws in a Moscow court. The court cited insufficient evidence of criminal activity — a question of fact — without touching the question of law of whether the site's activities (had they been proven by the prosecution) actually violated Russian copyright law. The trial's presiding judge said, 'I want to draw particular attention to the sloppy job done by prosecutors in collecting and analyzing the facts.' According to the Moscow Times, though, the allofmp3.com case is far from over. Two more criminal trials are scheduled to take place: one against Vladimir Mamotin, the media director of MediaServices, the parent company of allofmp3.com, and another against the company itself."
you screw the MPAA!!
Wow, the first ISR post in the thread. 3rd top level post. And it's rated redundant...
Who the heck rated this? Screwy McHasnoclue?
I mean, it's a cliche, using a cliche is not in and of itself redundant. The 20+ copies of this post made through out the day further down the thread will be redundant, but this first use is not.
