Illegal music sharing website closed down

British and Dutch police have closed down one of the world's biggest illegal music file sharing websites – operating from a flat in Middlesbrough. Police and music industry investigators believe the site was run by a 24-year-old IT worker, who has been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and infringement of copyright law. The site's servers, based in Amsterdam, were seized in raids last week.
