InformationWeek | Internet Search | Search Engines Fight Copyright-Infringement Suits | February 24, 2006

"Two search engines sued by the Motion Picture Association of America Inc. for allegedly providing links to illegal copies of movies and TV shows said Friday that they are forming a coalition to fight the lawsuits.

IsoHunt.com and TorrentBox.com said they would work together with defendants in MPAA suits and other file-sharing operators to battle the trade group.

'We will fight for the right for technological progress and the legality of the search engine itself,' IsoHunt.com said in a posting."
