Universal Music Sues MySpace 116
Grooves writes "Universal Music is suing MySpace for copyright infringement. Universal threatened to sue YouTube before the
Google acquisition was announced, so now it looks like they have moved on to the next target. Ars speculates that Universal is really after a piece of the action. 'On the morning of the
Google-YouTube deal, Universal — along with Sony BMG and CBS — signed
a licensing agreement with YouTube. If MySpace were to sign a similar agreement with the label, there is little doubt that the lawsuit would disappear.'"

I wouldn't, however, expect plumbers to change our entire legal and political system any more than I would expect IT people to. Although with that being said, I've met several plumbers that are more in touch with the real world than most IT people could ever hope to be.
