BitTorrent site told to remove all Copyright content within three months by Dutch Court
The world’s largest BitTorrent site has been ordered to remove all Copyright files on its site or face a fine of up to €5 million (£4.4m).
A Dutch Court has given the site three months to complete the order, say reports.
The Utrecht District Court agreed with Stichting Brein, a Dutch-based organization funded by entertainment groups, that Mininova was inciting users to violate copyright.
.
Mininova’s ‘notice and takedown policy’, which allows copyright holders to remove infringing torrents, is not sufficient, the Court said.
The news comes two days after the ISP host of fellow leading BitTorrent site The Pirate Bay was ordered to close the portal down.

And?
Since Mininova - like all torrent sites - does not host ANY copyright material, only torrent files, it's hard to see that this ruling means anything at all.

Mininova has lost its civil dispute with Dutch anti-piracy outfit BREIN. The judge ruled that Mininova is not directly responsible for any copyright infringement, but ordered it to remove all torrents linking to copyrighted material within three months, or face a penalty of up to 5 million euros.
