Heise: Napster Must Not (Completely) Go Offline
»Though the music exchange service Napster must not completely go offline, but
has to stop illegal copying of copyrighted music. The court, which had to decide about
the injunction in the context of the music industry's claim against Napster, confirmed
this injunction meaning that Napster violated copyrights, but wants to have it changed.
Because this decision to take Napster offline completely would have overshot. According
to the current decision Napster has to stop the exchange of songs in the case of violation
of copyrights. Until the injunction got changed it was delayed. But in fact this is about
to withdraw Napster's foundation - except for they will come to terms with the owner of
the copyrights before the injunction becomes effective.«
