The case is - as others have said - largely symbolic, given that Mr. Casas is located thousands of miles from US jurisdiction.

I just ran across the article. Sorry that I didn't see the earlier posts.

What the hell?? I just read the article and the guy that cracked AND DISTRIBUTED the CineSamples software is a commercial sample developer himself! How f---ing low can you go? I knew there were some vendors out that will try to smear a competitor's name to get a leg up, but damn...this is just plain lowdown and dirty

. I will never purchase anything from IceSamples after reading this.

Stay in Vegas, please. The US doesnt need any more ambassadors of your ilk.

Victory for anti piracy!

For this publicity stunt Cinesamples has to pay tens of thousands of dollars, and receive nothing in return.

The Chilean guy is prob like a Robin Hood over there right now. Famous and loved by every musician.

Lesson to anti piracy people: ATTACK THE ONES THAT ARE MAKING A PROFIT FROM IT! (like hundreds of ebay sellers for example)

Btw. US legal system seems a bit funny. If anyone from over there would make an accusation of me stealing from them.. and if i couldn't afford to fly there to defend myself i'd loose. Money = Justice.

Actually, his sample development company was based around selling illegal samples.

The court case in question was not about that though.. he was distributing cinesamples stuff for free.

What is your source?

Don't get me wrong here.. I don't support piracy, and i hate artists who openly promote it (Avicii, Dahlback, Guetta & Garraud etc).

It was widely-discussed on VI-Control. Numerous instruments on his site were clearly not developed by him. Anyway, the court case might not have been about that, but it was well-known that he was infringing for profit in other ways. He does deserve to be punished.

Cinesamples wins in court
