The MPAA lost this round.

SlashDot Article.
What his page looked like when it happened.
Well, after some discussion, he's not only in no trouble and %99 sure he's in the clear here for the court case, after some careful delebiration with lawyers, but a court judge
agrees with him.
He did nothing but develop the client, which is nice and legal.
And to spit in their face, he
released a new version
to boot. 1.6 was supposed to kill many bugs, and it did.
I use this version, and it owns.
2) The MPAA has been sending out tons of subpoenas to people downloading movies off the Mule at the moment. I see these letters posted on release forums everyday.
- Half of the time, they were incorrect in what they said people were sharing.
- The few times that they were right, the people stopped for a few days, started up again(for months), and nothing happened, even when downloading popular stuff. The ISPs are just following orders for this scare tactic, but not doing anything big based on it.

" id="60561">1) xMule, the Linux version of eMule, popular P2P
client, has two developers.
The main developer, Un-Thesis, got a subpoena,
and his internet connection shut down.
