"Music Publishers Join YouTube Copyright Suit
By ETHAN SMITH and KEVIN J. DELANEY
August 7, 2007; Page A2
A trade association representing major music publishers signed on as plaintiffs in an existing lawsuit accusing YouTube of copyright infringement, joining a growing list of parties who argue Google Inc.'s video-sharing service routinely violates intellectual-property rights...
The lawsuit the publishers are joining was originally filed in May in U.S. District Court in New York City; it is seeking class action status, but hasn't yet been certified by a judge. The plaintiffs included a British soccer league called the Football Association Premier League Ltd. and New York independent music publisher Bourne Co.; Robert Tur, the owner of Los Angeles News Service, plans to drop a separate suit and join the class action. Viacom Inc. has filed a separate copyright infringement suit."
