Baidu wins IFPI lawsuit

The Beijing No.1 Intermediate People's Court found Baidu's
MP3 search service was legal. They ruled providing search
results of copyrighted material does not break copyright
laws. The IFPI, consisting of Sony BMG Hong Kong, UMG
and Warner Records, had filed the lawsuit on Feb 2008,
asking for $9 million.
