Status

RIAA applied for cert, and were denied.

Summary

Overturned a district court ruling that the DMCA required Verizon Internet Services to obey a subpoena seeking the identity of a subscriber who allegedly used KaZaA peer-to-peer software to share music online. The Circuit Court ruled that Congress did not intend to subject alleged copyright-infringing material that does not reside on an ISP's network to the subpoena provisions of the DMCA.
