When will the cat learn?

December 23rd, 2005

NapsterNapster is getting sued again. Although the brand is now associated with legal downloads, it has still managed to break copyright laws.

MCS Music America, which owns the copyrights for 45,000 songs, claims that Napster is selling the songs controlled by MCS without obtaining licenses.

Napster sent a form to MCS seeking an agreement but neither party signed the agreement. MCS is asking Napster to pay $150,000 which shouldn’t be much for the cat to cough up.

    Hmmm, BMG bought Napster for a huge amount to make sure it’s legal and the whole world cried over Napster going under.
    Now the thing that started it all, the legal Napster, is being sued for having illegal downloads?
    HAHAHAHAHA.

    ahem.
