New tactics by the BPI

Post by fac51 »

The recorded music industry's trade group has told internet service providers (ISPs) to freeze the accounts of customers who illegally fileshare.

The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) has written to Tiscali and Cable & Wireless asking them to suspend 59 accounts for "illegal filesharing".

Until now, the BPI has focused on individuals, rather than other firms.

The ISPs should now "put their houses in order and pull the plug on these people", said the BPI.
