What is the name of your state? Washignton
I downloaded some short movies on a peer-to-peer sharing site called Kazaa and put them on a CD and sold a total of 6 CD's on ebay. Then I got a cease and desist email from a company representing the copyright owner. They wanted me to do the following:
1. to stop all auctions (which I did)
2. Send them all remaining CD's
3. send them records of all profits ($20.00)
4. send them names and address on buyers
5. confirm in writing by friday that I will comply
If I do that they say they will not take legal action and merely assess damages. I beleive that both parties named to be legit and this is not a hoax.
Should I respond to the request? What should I do? Are they trying to scare me?
Isn't this in the public domain?
Any help would be appreciated,
thanks KazaaSeller
