Though not really about "music," FOX aired an episode of The Simpsons tonight (Jan. 5, 2013), Steal This Episode, all about copyright infringement and online piracy (of movies). Definitely worth a watch.

End of RIAA Litigation for Online File-Sharing?

The Tables Have Turned
Thanks to the Patry Copyright Blog for calling the following to our attention:
Sony BMG, ardent foe of music piracy, is in trouble for using pirated software.
The company is being sued by PointDev, a French software company that makes Windows administration tools, after an IT worker at Sony BMG called and supplied the company with a pirated license number for one of its products.
Isn't it ironic?
