Music industry lawyers have launched a clampdown on illegal CD burners in shops and newsagents across Australia. Last week lawyers walked into a newsagent and gave the owner several hours to stop customers using a CD copier. The raid was the first move in a campaign to get rid of an estimated 100 CD copying machines nationwide.

The producer of the machines, Hank Schreurs of the Brisbane-based Aussie Blue Vending Company, said the copiers were intended for use by people copying CDs containing their own data. Five Dock Newsagency owner Tony Fanouf said: "The suppliers assured me as long as we didn't tell people what they should do with the machine we should be in the clear." |
