Tennessee Makes it Illegal To Share Your Netflix Password

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday June 1, 2011 @09:47PM from the I-thought-sharing-was-good dept.

An anonymous reader writes "State lawmakers in Tennessee have passed a groundbreaking measure that would make it a crime to use a friend's login — even with permission — to listen to songs or watch movies from services such as Netflix or Rhapsody. The bill, which has been signed by the governor, was pushed by recording industry officials to try to stop the loss of billions of dollars to illegal music sharing. They hope other states will follow."
