MPAA sues Peekvid, YouTVPC

[admin]

Note to entrepreneurs hoping to build a business using illicit content: don't grant extensive interviews (complete with pictures) to the Wall Street Journal. That's what a pair of aspiring hackers did back in April when they described how their service, YouTVPC, allowed users to watch streaming TV shows and movies without charge. Now, the MPAA is cracking down on such sites, filing a lawsuit against both YouTVPC and Peekvid this week.

The lawsuit may also get into the matter of how such sites are financed. It's no secret in the industry that ads provided by reputable companies like Google and Yahoo commonly earn revenue for sites like Peekvid, and in fact the two sites targeted in the lawsuit both rely on advertising to pay the bills. In a statement, the MPAA noted that the web sites "profit handsomely from a seemingly endless stream of third-party advertising pitches."

So basically they are now willing to take on yahoo and Google, I cant wait to see this out come 2 very big companies with a lot of money.
GAME one now.
