Record Label Threatens Australian Web Site Over Song Link

Record label BMG Australia Ltd, part of the giant Bertelsmann
media empire, threatened to sue the owners of an Australian Web
site over a link to a famous song by artist John Farnham. Youth
action group S11 chose Farnham's "Your the Voice" as its theme
song for protests at the World Economic Forum meetings in
Melbourne, Australia next month.
