TODAY IN HISTORY

    KAZAA HELD LIABLE
    September 5, 2005 - Australia

    The continuing war between file-sharing services and the record labels has moved to Australia where the Australian Federal Court ordered Kazaa's owners, Sharman Networks, to modify the software to prevent further piracy. This is just another one of the many court cases the record labels are bringing in the US and around the world to protect their music. Earlier in the year the US Supreme Court ruled that file-sharing services could be held liable for copyright infringement under certain circumstances. In the ongoing war between File Sharing Services and the Record Industry as the industry targets one file sharing company others become more popular with Bit Torrent now 4 times as popular as Kazaa. It is thought that nearly 50% of all traffic on the Internet is Peer to Peer traffic.

    More vehicles are stolen on New Year's Day than any other holiday throughout the year. (So does that mean thieves are having their last fling before changing their ways or are they trying for a big score to start the New Year?)
