FFS, the latest patch for WipEout HD has reset all online progress... I was ranked 40.

The real joke is, there is fuck all happening online, so I'm never gonna be able to get back to that level, even if I had the time to put in. :/

Haha, well aware of them. But could you effectively explain why no rights holders have litigated against copyright infringers in the UK, for example? |8

Because the UK, like the rest of the sensible world, realises there is usually a better way to do things then take everyone to court.

Unfortunately, Americans haven't grasped this concept yet and frivolous litigation is widespread.

At a guess:

a) it isn't cost effective to commence civil proceedings against copyright infringers; or
b) we have a strange quirk, or quirks, in existing law and/or judgements that makes litigation either impossible or very difficult to conclude to a satisfactory level.

Not quite, they've certainly threatened plenty of people with court proceedings, just none of them have ever ended up there, because:

b) we have a strange quirk, or quirks, in existing law and/or judgements that makes litigation either impossible or very difficult to conclude to a satisfactory level.

;P

b) is the correct(ish) answer. Basically, UK courts won't hear individual cases against people accused of digital piracy, and the bulk cases fall through because there's not a properly legitimate way to get ahold of user data. As for suing people like the owners of Kazaa/Napster, that will never happen in the UK because of the tort of authorisation. Basically, you can't be sued for your users' copyright infringement unless you gave them explicit permission to use your software for exactly that purpose.Welcome to the wonderful world of Uk copyright law. AKA why my dissertation is on American law :P
