Dr. Dre sues individual Napster users
The 'sue-Napster-mania' has taken a new turn now that the rapper Dr. Dre decided to sue individual Napster users in his suit against Napster. This is the first time action is undertaken against individuals using the Napster program. The case involves a few not yet named students that allegedly distributed Dr. Dre's copyrighted songs.
I sure wonder how this will turn out, if the individuals involved really receive some kind of fine (this seems very unlike to me; how can anything be proven?), it could mean trouble for a whole lot more people.
Oh, a pretty ironic note: Dr. Dre has been sued himself a few days ago, because after explicitly being denied permission, he used a sound sample copyrighted by LucasFilm for the beginning of his new CD
