Spain P2P smackdown
Posted in International on June 27th, 2006

While P2 for personal use is legal in France and The Netherlands, it's now illegal in Spain. The spanish Congress also made it a criminal offense for ISPs that facilitate unauthorized file sharing, though it's not clear what ISPs do that could be deemed contributory. To top it off, a tax will also be assessed on recordable media from CDs to memory sticks. The MPAA was very, very happy.
