ifpi loses deep linking case against baidu

Quote:
In 2008, Baidu was sued for around $9 million by Sony BMG, Universal Music and Warner Music for providing so-called ?deep-links? to copyright music tracks. A court has now ruled that providing search results does not breach copyright law, clearing China?s biggest search engine of wrong-doing.

considering torrents are two step deeper linking (instead of linking to a file that links to an mp3 you link to a file that creates a swarm that points to pieces of a file, which must be first put together before they can every be used)
