Talking of legit P2Ps and things like that, the man behind South Korean file sharing network Soribada which, as previously reported, was closed down by the courts there, has said he still hopes to find a P2P system that can operate without violating copyright laws. South Korean newspaper Chosun Ilbo quote the company's chief, Yang Jung-wan, as saying: "The service recently suspended by court order was limited to Soribada 3, but not all P2P services were banned. I'm racking my brain to develop various models that don't infringe on rights of internet users and allow us to allocate revenues to copyright holders". However the Korean Association Of Phonogram Producers which led the various litigation against Soribada is said to be cynical of Jung-wan's motives, and insiders there say they will be watching any future ventures he launches very carefully.
