IRMA THE NOT-SO-DOUCE

-

The IP newsletter of Irish law firm Matheson Ormsby Prentice reports that IRMA, the Irish Recorded Music Association is following the lead of its US and UK cousins and is chasing 17 individuals who have engaged in large-scale serial file-sharing (i.e. 2,000 files or more, which is said to equate to 200 albums). Damages and injunctive relief are the goal, but IRMA is starting with a quest for discovery of the identities of its 17 targets.

The IPKat notes that, despite its traditionally laid-back attitude towards copyright enforcement, Ireland can no longer be regarded as a haven for mass file-sharing.

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
