I know this isn't the full story but I wonder how in the world do they know that they are "illegal" downloads? They could be rips from his own vinyl catalog. It said they found his laptop @ the club.I thougth the only way they can prosecute is if first there's proof of actually downloading or file sharing which usually means acquiring an IP address from the site you're stealing from. It sounds like they've either been watching this guy for a long time and have proof of him downloading or they just stumbled across a laptop with files on them. If it's the ladder they can't do jack.

I say GOOD. The thieving, mp3-using, fly-by-night of a dj. Should be paying for his shizzle if he's not getting it on promo. jeez, if he's a 'big' dj too, he's even getting paid. think of all the people out there who dont get paid and still put all their money into buying music. Unless of course the dj in question is Danielle Baldelli, or our very own Fab from Italy. Then, we'll have to start a campaign to free them.
