It Was Only A Matter Of Time…
EMI, the beleaguered major, has filed a copyright infringement against Michael Robertson, CEO of MP3tunes.com, according to a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. This is not a surprise to most industry watchers, including FutureMusic who predicted a bevy of lawsuits against Robertson and Sideload.com in a March 21, 2006 article.
Several EMI-owned labels and publishers have sued Robertson, Sideload.com and MP3tunes.com, for willful infringement of copyright over the Internet. According to reports, Robertson claims that the case appeared to be retaliatory, since MP3tunes recently sued EMI in San Diego a month ago after the record company sent a cease-and-desist letter to Sideload, a “search engine” for digital music files.
