They are at it again folks, a German rights organisation has been taking legal action against edonkey servers recently.

On Friday the German music industry celebrated a partial victory in its fight against the illegal distribution of music on the Internet. A temporary injunction issued by the District Court (LG) in Hamburg and served to the operator of an eDonkey server had "ordered the said operator to take his computer off-line for as long as the range of music files offered for download via the server contains illegal files," the German Chapter of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) declared (File Number 308 O 273/07). The way of describing the case chosen by the Chapter is a highly abridged version of events, however.

As a matter of fact, in the case dealt with by the court in Hamburg, the operator was only prohibited from distributing the songs contained on one album of one band. 


Its rather more than likely the content alleged to be being "made accesssible" was planted there by the rights organisation itself as has happened in other cases involving frustrated copyright owners or their lackies.

I,m waiting for them to sue Google next and await the results of that case  :wink:
