BRUSSELS, Belgium - A little-known Belgian songwriter won a plagiarism
case against Madonna on Friday, leading a local court to ban the
megastar's song "Frozen" from sale or broadcast in the country.

"The judge has ruled Madonna must withdraw from sales all remaining
disks, and orders that TV and radio can no longer play 'Frozen,'"
Acquaviva's lawyer, Victor-Vincent Dehin, said.

So basically Madonna stole some persons original song ,
and he took her to court and won the case in his country.

Which raises the question, if you share that song, who exactly is
going to sue you (apart from the bad taste squad)? Surely
Madge/RIAA-equivalent can't take you to court for sharing a song they
no longer have the right to distribute, but the Belgian guy hasn't
actually got rights to the song either, he's just prevented Madge from
selling it in Belgium.

Hypothetical, and only applicable to Belgium, I know, but I wonder
about these things.
