>From http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/01/27/1552240&from=rss : ================================ An anonymous reader writes "Two British men have been found guilty of illegally sharing music via a P2P network. The BBC reports that their defense of 'Not knowing it was illegal' and that 'There was no evidence' did not hold water, and they have been ordered to pay the BPI 'between £1500 and £5000' - probably with double that again in costs. Theis isn't the first time the BPI has launched a case of this kind - but it is the first time the accused has tried to fight instead of stumping up the cash straight away. Three other verdicts are pending. ================================== Are you prepared to reimburse that could be prosecutd by BPI ( http://www.bpi.co.uk/ )? -- Enric Yahoo!
