A court in Sweden has jailed four men behind The Pirate Bay (TPB), the world's most high-profile file-sharing website, in a landmark case.

Frederik Neij, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Carl Lundstrom and Peter Sunde were found guilty of breaking copyright law and were sentenced to a year in jail.

They were also ordered to pay $4.5m (£3m) in damages.

Record companies welcomed the verdict but the men are to appeal and Sunde said they would refuse to pay the fine.

Speaking at an online press conference, he described the verdict as "bizarre".

"It's serious to actually be found guilty and get jail time. It's really serious. And that's a bit weird," Sunde said.

"It's so bizarre that we were convicted at all and it's even more bizarre that we were [convicted] as a team. The court said we were organised. I can't get Gottfrid out of bed in the morning. If you're going to convict us, convict us of disorganised crime.

"We can't pay and we wouldn't pay. Even if I had the money I would rather burn everything I owned, and I wouldn't even give them the ashes."


It is almost certain that The Pirate Bay will keep on sailing, long after today's court judgement

The damages were awarded to a number of entertainment companies, including Warner Bros, Sony Music Entertainment, EMI, and Columbia Pictures.

However, the total awarded fell short of the $17.5m in damages and interest the firms were seeking.

Speaking to the BBC, the chairman of industry body the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) John Kennedy said the verdict sent out a clear message.

"These guys weren't making a principled stand, they were out to line their own pockets. There was nothing meritorious about their behaviour, it was reprehensible.

"The Pirate Bay did immense harm and the damages awarded doesn't even get close to compensation, but we never claimed it did.

"There has been a perception that piracy is OK and that the music industry should just have to accept it. This verdict will change that," he said.

The four men denied the charges throughout the trial, saying that because they did not actually host any files, they were not doing anything wrong.

Speaking on Swedish Radio, assistant judge Klarius explained how the court reached its findings.

"The court first tried whether there was any question of breach of copyright by the file-sharing application and that has been proved, that the offence was committed.

"The court then moved on to look at those who acted as a team to operate the Pirate Bay file-sharing service, and the court found that they knew that material which was protected by copyright but continued to operate the service," he said.

A lawyer for Carl Lundstrom, Per Samuelson, told journalists he was shocked by the guilty verdict and the severity of the sentence.

"That's outrageous, in my point of view. Of course we will appeal," he was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency. "This is the first word, not the last. The last word will be ours."

Political issue

Rickard Falkvinge, leader of The Pirate Party - which is trying to reform laws around copyright and patents in the digital age - told the BBC that the verdict was "a gross injustice".

"This wasn't a criminal trial, it was a political trial. It is just gross beyond description that you can jail four people for providing infrastructure.

Mark Mulligan from Forrester Research says what was different about Pirate Bay

"There is a lot of anger in Sweden right now. File-sharing is an institution here and while I can't encourage people to break copyright law, I'm not following it and I don't agree with it.

"Today's events make file-sharing a hot political issue and we're going to take this to the European Parliament."

The Pirate Bay is the world's most high profile file-sharing website and was set up in 2003 by anti-copyright organisation Piratbyran, but for the last five years it has been run by individuals.

Millions of files are exchanged using the service every day.

No copyright content is hosted on The Pirate Bay's web servers; instead the site hosts "torrent" links to TV, film and music files held on its users' computers.

Ghoul Patrolin kolmas EP on nyt purkissa. Jäljellä on enää miksaus ja masterointi,
jotka varmaan hoituvat suht pikaiseen tuntien ton yhden herran työmoraalin ja
"speed-factorin". Studioon menimme tosiaan maanantaina rumpuja äänittämään ja nyt kaikki on nauhalla
ryhmähuudoista banjoon.

Pakko sanoa, etten ole mistään asiasta niin ylpeä, mitä oon ikinä tehny, kun mitä olen tosta
neljän biisin värssystä. Ja se, joka millään tavalla haukkuu sitä levyä, saa kuulemma henkilökohtaisesti
turpaan Janilta. Kahtellaan, kahtellaan.

Herr proucer jeesaili mua kahden liidiosuuden kanssa, kun ne oli jäänyt vielä snadisti epäselväksi vielä ennen studiota, koska menin ja heitin alkuperäiset soolot roskikseen viikko ennen studiota Janin käskemänä. Hyvä niin. Melkeinpä sellanen fiiwis, kun että olisi juuri saanut ei-toivotun lapsen, mutta on pakko ottaa vastuu hommasta ja pitää huolta siitä.
Nyssit 4REAL alotan vähän ylläpitämään noita kitarataitoja, ja ehkä pahimmillaan pitänee treenata
toi Matiaksenkin esiintyminen. Just for the sake of it.

Tekis kyllä kuitenki snadisti mieli hakata Fallout 3 läpi, mutta sitä taas tietää, mitä kitaransoitolle käypi, jos niin teen :F Shit.
