INTERNET MUSIC PIRACY 
 
The music industry has announced an intensification of its campaign against illegal file-sharing. It calls on music fans to buy their music online legitimately, rather than risk the legal consequences of illegal file-sharing. There are now over 100 legal online music sites in Europe offering a total of over one million music tracks. 
Users of file-sharing services such as KaZaA, EDonkey/eMule and Gnutella are the target. This is a warning that no illegal uploaders are immune from legal action, whichever service they are using. Individuals are charged with acting illegally by making copyrighted music available on the Internet without the permission of the copyright holder - this is against the law throughout Europe and internationally. These people are likely to face compensation payments averaging several thousand euros. 
Illegal file-sharing has contributed to the decline in global music sales - down US$6 billion in the last five years. For that reason, awareness campaigns around the world have included music coalition websites, media advertising, university and school projects and instant messages sent directly to people using unauthorised services. 
The fight against online music piracy has become the subject of daily debate, in the media, in government and in ordinary households.
