Internet service changes to prevent pirating
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — An Israeli technology company that makes popular software for downloading music over the Internet agreed Tuesday to pay $4.1 million to the recording industry for copyright infringement, a significant victory for music labels.
software has been downloaded more than 76 million times.
Bridgemar Services Ltd., formerly known as iMesh.com Ltd., agreed under a court-approved settlement to change its Internet service later this year to prevent consumers from illegally distributing music or downloading songs. The iMesh
Until then, its software — which lets Internet users search for music and video files and download them free in just minutes — will function as it always has. The iMesh service works similarly to the leading Kazaa software from Sharman Networks Ltd., which claims far more users worldwide than iMesh.
The settlement, reached in U.S. District Court in New York, represents one of the rare efforts by the recording industry to successfully sue technology companies producing software that allows Internet
users to exchange pirated songs and other files, rather than suing Internet users individually.
In its lawsuit, record companies alleged that the software helped Internet users illegally exchange millions of songs and sought $150,000 in damages for each song, plus attorney fees.
So far, U.S. courts have ruled that software companies aren't liable when their products are used by others for copyright infringement. The recording industry has appealed one ruling in California and a pending Senate proposal would establish such legal liability for software makers.
