Pirate Bay swashbucklers convicted in Swedish court
The music industry cheered as a Swedish court on Friday, 17 April 2009, found the four proprietors of The Pirate Bay guilty of copyright law violation.
The Pirate Bay is a torrent tracker site in Sweden that helps users find and download files used to swap movies, music, TV shows, games, books and software via BitTorrent file-sharing applications. It was accessed by more than 20 million people worldwide last year.
The defendants have vowed to appeal.
