Movie Downloading Networks Targeted
Posted on November 8, 2004
Movie downloading is quickly becoming the threat to film companies that music downloading is to music publishers. To thwart this threat the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), has launced a plan to file lawsuits against peer-to-peer (P2P) networks where they claim the illegal downloading is occuring. The MPAA says 115,000 to 148,000 illegal movie downloads occur daily on these P2P networks. The MPAA also hinted they might go after individuals in the future. An MPAA statement read, "Although lawsuits have not yet been filed against people who illegally make movies available on P2P networks, our outside counsel is collecting evidence regarding individuals who use the Internet to trade illegal digital copies of our member companies' motion pictures."
