Description
I. BACKGROUND iiNet Limited ("iiNet') is an internet service provider that provides an internet connection to thousands of computer users within Australia. In 2009, 34 major motion picture studios ("Copyright Owners") brought an action against iiNet on the grounds that it had breached copyright by authorizing the illegal downloading of movies by its users. The allegation was that iiNet customers used a 'BitTorrent" program ("BitTorrent') in order to communicate copies of copyrighted films to the public over the internet, and that iiNet authorised these infringements.
