Brilliant Digital Entertainment on Thursday said it collected $375,000 in net revenue for the second quarter, down 42 percent from $652,000 in the comparable second quarter of 2001.

Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Brilliant Digital, whose Altnet peer-to-peer software comes bundled with the popular Kazaa file-swapping client, reported a net loss of about $2 million, or 9 cents per share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or 8 cents per share, for the same period last year.

Brilliant Digital Chief Executive Kevin Bermeister attributed the drop in revenue to initial costs associated with a shift in corporate strategy from 3D animation production to advertising and content distribution services offered through Altnet.

That's a lot of money. I certainly would be angry over that other programs rip off the original KaZaA such as KaZaA Lite and add-on Diet Kaza but I'm furious over the fact that they included spyware in their product.:m:

Well, like they say: easy come, easy go.

They got money for free in the first place (not to mention with unscrupulous spyware bundling). I hope they rot in hell.
