The record labels, including Universal, Sony, BMG and Warner
Brothers, last Friday sued the ISPs, including AT&T Broadband,
Cable and Wireless, Sprint, Advanced Network Services and a unit of
WorldCom, arguing that they must stop their users accessing the
Listen4ever.com web site which acted as a central location for the
download of thousands of songs.
The RIAA said in a statement that it was prepared to take
further legal action, if Listen4ever, which has been inaccessible
since Monday, reappears with a different name, or in a different
location.
