KaZaa is a program that allows users to share media files. The company that developed it was sued in a copyright infringement case. An Australian company, Sharman Networks Ltd., has bought parts of KaZaa BV, the company responsible for the program, including the program itself.
Many of the world's largest recording, music publishing and motion picture companies have sued KaZaa, MusicCity and Grokster, saying the network allows mass music and movie piracy. KaZaa had stopped all downloads of the program, but since its purchase, the new owners reopened KaZaa to the public.
