Submission + - British record companies win £41m in dam
Benjamin Fox writes: "The BBC reports that online retailer CD-Wow has been ordered to pay £41m to the British Phonographic Industry. The London High Court ruled that Hong Kong-based CD-Wow, which imports cheap (but genuine) CDs from Hong Kong and elsewhere to the U.K., is "'in substantial breach' of a 2004 agreement to stop importing CDs." This is a serious blow to proponents of an open, no-barrier music market."
