    That's from wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapidshare

    I'm not sure it's exactly correct, but they've been down for a few hours now, and then this popped up on Wikipedia. It's moot whether it's acutally happened, but there are loads of other stories too; what do you think?

    Rapidshare.De is up, another site says they've won the case.

    Last update

    On 19 January 2007, news broke that German collections agency GEMA had claimed to have won a temporary injunction against both RapidShare.de and RapidShare.com. "The latter is said to have used copyright protected works of GEMA members in an unlawful fashion"
