Authored by Mark Hefflinger on June 30, 2006 - 2:45pm.
San Francisco - Adult entertainment production company Io Group this week filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against video-sharing site Veoh Networks, alleging the company allowed its users to post its copyrighted Titan Video titles and view them over 40,000 times during the month of June, The Wall Street Journal reported. Last week, San Diego-based Veoh stopped allowing its users to post adult videos to the site, and removed thousands of both copyrighted films, like Io Group's, and amateur fare from the network.
