Project Playlist Sued By Nine Labels

Allege massive infringement

5 Comments

Project Playlist allows its

Project Playlist allows its users to embed their playlists on social networking sites including Facebook, and MySpace. The record labels said Project Playlist brings in more than 600,000 users daily, with around 9.5 million average views per day.

interesting

You would think that instead of sueing them, they would capture their 600000 listeners and market to them. They would also bring those guys on board to market their current artists.

Shoulda waited for the Orphan Works Bill to pass

With the new Orphan Works Act of 2008 that's being railroaded through congress on the fast track, Project Playlist would have been able to claim that they simply did not find a match between the song and a formally registered copyright. In any case, by Summer, the ability of the nine labels to actually receive compensation for the copyright infringement will be more difficult and limited to paltry amounts if they're able to prove, not that they held the copyright, but whether PP did perform due diligence.

This law is going to make the whole idea of copyright protection a thing of the past.
