In October of 2008, a district judge in New York dismissed a case brought against defendants including Bertelsmann AG, EMI Group, Sony Corp, Vivendi SA and Warner Music Group Corp and various affiliates of these music companies. The U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York has now ruled that the judge on the original 2008 case was in error when he dismissed the suit.

The suit alleges that the defendants named in the original case had conspired together to fix the price of music sold online. The suit also alleged that the defendants limited the availability of downloaded music in violation of antitrust law, specifically a violation of the Sherman Act.

can't wait to see the music industry get a taste of it's own medicine.
