EMI win cyber squatting case

EMI has won a cybersquatting case over the emi-musicgroup.info domain, which the World Intellectual Property Organisation has ordered handed over, while MySpace won myspacetv.org.

The EMI Group has won a cyber squatting case against an Argentina outfit that operated one of those advertising based sites at emi-musicgroup.info. The company tired to justify their ownership of the domain by calling their company E MI Musicgroup, which you have to admit is a damn good effort at twisting the rules. But alas the World Intellectual Property Organisation ruled that it wasn't a good enough effort and have ordered the domain be handed over to the real EMI Group. MySpace, meanwhile, won the rights to the myspacetv.org domain.
