Hi Mark,

I think that the strengthening of the criminal laws against piracy are to give more power to our "Trading Standards Officers". So far they have beeen only able to use "conterfeighting", "fraud" and "passing off".

I do not see them going after the odd copy for a third party, as you would really have great difficulty in proving that the third party would have bought it, and that the copyright owner would really have lost out?

Just a couple of thoughts,

Cheers
