MPAA sues Scour

20 July 2000 19:20 by Petteri "dRD" Pyyny

"RIAA guys have all the fun, we just have this lousy 2600 case on our hands. Let's do something about it!"

MPAA sued Scour.com for copyright violations yesterday.

"Scour is Napster with movies," said Jack Valenti, the chairman and the CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America.

That's true -- finding movies in DivX ;-) format with Scour Exchange (dubbed as SX) is piece of cake. Some movies can also be found in VCD format (MPEG-1), etc.. And as always, all the releases are brand new and not meant for even video distribution yet (like X-Men, released last week in theaters in US).

Let's see what happens, probably Napster's case is going to draw the lines for this case as well..
