More Join Anti-YouTube Copyright Suit

More parties have joined a class action lawsuit against YouTube, alleging that the video sharing service encouraged users to infringe on their copyrights. The class action, begun by the English soccer Premier League and music publisher Bourne & Co has been joined by eight new complainants, including the National Music Publishers’ Association, the Rugby Football League, the Finnish Football League Association and author Daniel Quinn. It will also be joined soon by Robert Tur, the journalist who shot the 1992 Reginald Denny footage.
Google says the plaintiffs are misunderstanding the purpose and how to use the Digital Millenium Copyright Act.
