Wired News: The Pirate Bay: Here to Stay?
Last month, the Motion Picture Association of America announced one of its boldest sorties yet against online piracy: a barrage of seven federal lawsuits against some of the highest-profile BitTorrent sites, Usenet hosts and peer-to-peer services. Among the targets: isoHunt, TorrentSpy and eDonkey.

The same is true of music videos—Google Video has a smattering of videos by Sony BMG artists, but iTunes has most of those and many more besides.
Microsoft’s Mobile Maneuver
The software giant may finally have figured out how to crack the wireless business.
Say this much for Microsoft: It never gives up. A decade after it started flogging a shrunken-down version of Windows for electronic devices other than PCs, the Redmond (Wash.)-based software titan is finally making a meaningful mark on the vibrant market for mobile phones.
What’s going on here is that Microsoft has finally started to figure out the mobile industry — and to spot the places where it can exert the most leverage.
