Norway Teenager Found Not Guilty of DVD Piracy

OSLO (Reuters) - A Norwegian teenager was cleared of DVD piracy charges on Tuesday in a landmark trial brought on behalf of major Hollywood studios.
The Oslo court said Jon Johansen, known in Norway as "DVD Jon," had not broken the law when he helped unlock a code and distribute a computer program enabling unauthorized copying of DVD movies.

"Johansen is found not guilty," Judge Irene Sogn, flanked by two technical experts, told the court. "The verdict is unanimous." She said prosecutors could appeal the ruling.

--If DVD were all $5.00 each I would buy them ALL.
