Creator of Morpheus Is Found Liable
In a ruling that is sure to depress users and fans of peer-to-peer (P2P) networking, a federal judge in Los Angeles ruled Wednesday against the creators of the Morpheus file-swapping software. The judge said that StreamCast Networks Inc., the distributor of Morpheus software, actively encouraged millions of users to break the law.
The ruling was a sweeping victory for a coalition of Hollywood movie studios, record companies and music publishers who sued Los Angeles-based StreamCast Networks and similar firms in 2001. The case led to a landmark copyright ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court last year.
