Seeqpod sued by Warner Music

Seeqpod sued by Warner Music
TechCrunch among others noted that seeqpod earned the legal attention of
Warner Music. Claims include "Direct Copyright Infringement" "Contributory
Copyright Infringement" "Vicarious Copyright Infringement" "Inducing
Copyright Infringement" yeah, and a bunch of others. It's funny to me that
the news story on their website today is about their earnings conference call, nothing about
seeqpod.
The suit names names of WMG artists affected by seeqpod's induction of
copyright infringement: Neil Young, Madonna, Greenday, Ramones, Twista, Busta
Rymes, Black Sabbath, Zepplin, a-ha (?), The Doors, Chicago... Chicago?
C'mon. Though I'll admit to having listened to the Ramones recently this
just a really bad playlist.
In the words and spirit of Munger,
Tolles, & Olson
LLP (who's cheap-ass website also uses (Zombie) Cold Fusion (like good ole' GreacenZone)) here's a
little on-
demand digital performance for you:
I suspect there will be a bunch of mashed-up Web 2.x knots to untangle in the
courts. Just wait till you can play a seeqpod playlist on your iphone:
This'll piss everyone off. Let's watch this one.
