Could Napster win cause labels to lose?


A federal judge gave file-swapping company Napster a significant win in court Friday, ordering new scrutiny of the big record labels' ownership rights to music that could affect their own online plans.
The order does not affect the legality of Napster's file-swapping service, which has already been shut down as a result of previous legal decisions. Rather, San Francisco Federal Judge Marilyn Hall Patel's order opens a potential can of worms for the major labels as they seek to push their own Internet music-distribution services.

With Napster charged with copyright infringement by the record industry, the company's attorneys have long sought to make a case that the big record labels invalidated their rights by engaging in copyright "misuse."
