Haha - there's more in the article about the tweeting than the outcome of the case, which I'm sure more people would be interested in.

I must say I'm glad the media companies lost this one.

Right, now please wake up and provide a secure, decently priced, direct to consumer , non-regional content stream.

It's time to get with it studios.

How do you hold an ISP responsible for content downloaded? Impossible.

ISP's users might use encrypted connections and spoofed IP's for download.
