Paradise City In Court
« on: August 13, 2008, 04:57:05 PM »
Marilyn Tennissen of the Southeast Texas Record reports: An East Texas man didn't make it to "Paradise City" when he downloaded some tunes from Guns N' Roses and other bands, but instead landed in court facing copyright infringement.

Jeff Gill was sued in federal court July 31 by UMG Recordings, Warner Bros. Records Inc., Sony BMG Music Entertainment and Arista Records LLC. The case was filed in the Sherman Division of the Eastern District of Texas.

Court papers say that on Aug. 21, 2007, Gill was identified using LimeWire to download 195 copyrighted audio files over the Internet without the permission or consent of the plaintiffs. LimeWire is not named in the suit.

Exhibit A, attached to the original complaint, lists 10 songs that Gill allegedly downloaded illegally: "Live for Today," "Away from the Sun," and "Kryptonite" by 3 Doors Down; "Intoxication" by Disturbed; "Better Than Me" by Hinder; "Paradise City" by Guns N' Roses; "The Reason" by Hoobastank; "Scars" by Papa Roach; "Twist" by Korn and "It Must Be Love" by Alan Jackson.

Don't Illegally download songs because they are doing after minor offenders now.
