The IFPI has made its first request to the Swedish courts to force an ISP to hand over details of an alleged file sharer.
In April, Sweden brought in its IPRED legislation, designed to rein in the apparently rampant filesharing conducted in the country. It did this by allowing record cos and the like to track down filesharers, by getting a court order forcing ISPs to hand over customer details.
The Local.se reports that the move relates to the Direct Connect network, rather than Bittorrent-based filesharing.
The individual has apparently uploaded 10,000 songs, as well as some movies. A lawyer or IFPI claimed the organisation had downloaded 50 songs from the malefactor.
