MySpace Liable for Infringement in India - Intermediary Shield Not Applicable

摘要

MySpace.com is liable for user uploads that infringe copyrighted Hindi music, the Indian High Court of Delhi ruled on July 29 (Super Cassetes Industries Ltd u MySpace Inc, India High Ct of Delhi, IA Nos. 08-15781, 09-3085, 7/29/11). A recently amended statute that shields online intermediaries from claims involving user-uploaded content did not shield MySpace - or its Indian counterpart at ww-w.in.myspace.com - from liability, the court concluded.
