Megaupload founder seeks bail in New Zealand court - Megaupload Drops Lawsuit Against Universal Music


The founder of file-sharing website Megaupload has appeared in a New Zealand court seeking bail.

German national Kim Dotcom - also known as Kim Schmitz - was arrested with three others in Auckland on Friday in a raid requested by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation.


Not so long ago, a legal video was taken down by repetitive DMCA requests to YouTube. In response, Megaupload filed a lawsuit against Universal Music.
