Pirate file-sharing trial starts

2009-02-16 12:08
line

Stockholm - Four men who work at The Pirate Bay file-sharing website are on trial in Stockholm - but they say they haven't done anything wrong.

The four are charged with accessory to breaking copyright law by helping millions of internet users download protected works.

The Pirate Bay doesn't host copyrighted content, but directs users to the material. It has 22 million users.

Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Peter Sunde, Fredrik Neij and Carl Lundstrom all could face up to two years in prison if convicted.

Music and movie companies are demanding $14.3m in compensation and damages.

Swedish news agency TT says a dozen Pirate Bay supporters waived black flags outside Monday's packed courtroom.
