A Santander judge has released a man who was facing a two year prison sentence for downloading and sharing music over the net
The judge in Penal Court 3 in Santander, Paz Aldecoa, has ruled that downloading music on the Internet is not a crime, provided that it is not done to make money.
The judge found a 48 year old Internet user not guilty, after he was facing demands from the prosecution for a two year prison sentence and 7,200 € fine for downloading and sharing music over the web.
The judge considered that article 31 of the Intellectual Property Law in Spain established the right of the public to obtain copies of music without permission of the author, provided they were for private use and no profit was made.

Good, because i wouldn't want to think that people were making money from
music. Would you?

This is weird. The story is on the front page of ABC newspaper today and
also today in El Mundo
http://www.elmundo.es/navegante/2006/11/01/tecnologia/1162383709.html
We confess to having missed it first time round!

Yes, and now the Guardian has picked up on it:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/spain/article/0,,1938301,00.html
All I did was search for the name of the judge and the word 'mp3'.
The same thing happened when you guys wrote about Columbus's remains being confirmed as belonging to him. You covered that about two months ago, but the story broke in May, I believe.

What a great philosophy for a news site to have. I'd love to see the BBC or NY Times take such an approach. Actually, I wouldn't.
