TechDirt techdirt Reports:報告:

Last month, the RIAA上個月,美國唱片協會 sued Limewire被訴limewire after Limewire wouldn’t agree to simply roll over and pretend the RIAA’s經過limewire不會同意簡單地滾動,並假裝加盟 interpretation釋義 of the Supreme Court decision in the Grokster case was actually what the Supreme Court said.根據最高法院的決定,在grokster的案件,實際上就是最高法院說。 The court actually said that services could be found liable, if they were shown to actively induce infringement.法院實際上是說,服務可以發現,負多少責任,如果他們表現出積極引導侵犯。 The RIAA and the MPAA pretended this meant that any file sharing network that had unauthorized content was flat-out illegal.美國唱片協會和美國電影協會假裝這意味著,任何的文件共享網絡已未經授權的內容是單位出非法的。 Of course, that’s a bit of a stretch.當然, that'sa有點強。 So, it already seemed like it would be an interesting case, but now Limewire has hit back even harder with counterclaims因此,它已經好像這將是一個有趣的案例,但現在limewire已作出反擊,更難與反訴 accusing the RIAA of antitrust violations, consumer fraud and other misconduct指責美國唱片協會的做法違反了反壟斷法,對消費者的欺詐和其他不當行為 . Specifically, they seem to be making the case that the RIAA only wants to shut down Limewire because it is a competitive distribution mechanism that they cannot control, which helps compete with their monopolistic control on traditional distribution.具體而言,他們似乎是決策的情況是美國唱片協會不僅要關閉limewire因為它是一個競爭性的分配機制,他們無法控制,這有利於競爭,其壟斷控制對傳統的分配。 It’s an interesting claim that does make some sense, though the RIAA will simply try to paint Limewire as a tool for “thieves.” As with many of these types of cases, there’s probably a decent chance that the sides will settle before any decision is made, but in this case, it would be very interesting to see the actual outcome of any lawsuit — both on the issue of whether or not simply running a file sharing network is inducement and on whether or not there really is an antitrust claim here.這是一個有趣的說法是否作出一些意義上說,儘管美國唱片協會根本設法油漆limewire作為一種工具, "盜亦有道" ,因為許多這些類型的情況下,有可能是一個像樣的機會,雙方將定居在作出任何決定之前,但在這種情況下,它會很有趣地看到實際的結果,任何官司-雙方就是否或不是簡單地運行一個文件共享網絡是誘因及有沒有真的是一個反壟斷訴訟在這裡。 If the case does go forward and the RIAA loses on the antitrust issue, it could have a big impact on the traditional labels, and could actually be a catalyst towards forcing them to accept the changing nature of the market.如果情況真的去了弘揚和美國唱片協會敗訴就反托拉斯問題,它可以有一個很大的影響,對傳統的標籤,並能真正有助於促成迫使他們接受改變性質的市場份額。 This is becoming a case well worth watching.這是成為一個案例,值得拭目以待。
