Infospace Hit with Ringtone Lawsuit

Infospace has been hit by a US$100 million lawsuit from the music publisher, EMI, reports Cellular News.

"The complaint alleges that InfoSpace and its subsidiaries Moviso and Premium Wireless Services have been underpaying royalties and selling ringtones for songs to which they hold no licensing rights.

The lawsuit also claims that InfoSpace has "engaged in a deliberate effort to frustrate and obstruct the audit rights held by plaintiffs pursuant to license agreements."
