Kazaa, Record Company Lawyers Ready for Australian Appeal

The appeal follows the September 5, 2005 judgment, which was dubbed a “landmark” decision by both sides. The judgment guaranteed the continued operation of Kazaa, while the record companies saw the decision as striking at the heart of internet piracy. At the time, the record companies reportedly said they would not be appealing the decision.
