Copyright Infringement Case

Joel Tenenbaum was sued by SONY BMG Music Entertainment, Warner Bros. Records Inc., Arista Records LLC, and UMG Recordings Inc. The case started in July of 2009. Joel was accused of downloading thirty songs and uploading them onto KaZaA, a popular music sharing site. This was clearly an infringement on the record label's music. Joel was found guilty and had to pay $675,000 to the four record labels.
