A complaint filed in the Southern District of New York by various music producers and distributors on Tuesday accused Frontier Communications Corporation of thousands of counts of copyright infringement, alleging that Frontier enabled its subscribers to illegally download music without any retribution.
The fifteen plaintiff companies are referred to as the Universal, Sony and Warner Plaintiffs respectively, all of whom “produce, manufacture, distribute, sell, and license commercial sound recordings, both in the United States and internationally.” The plaintiffs joined each other in this lawsuit as they allegedly have all been damaged by Frontier’s enabling and turning a blind eye to illegal music downloads powered by Frontier’s Internet service.
