The website they forced down was located in Canada. From what I've read, it did not appear that they were i violation of Canadian copyright law, but the person behind the site was a student who lacked the resources to defend himself in court.

Are you really going to defend UE's actions here? The vast majority of the scores on the site were uncontroversially in the public domain everywhere in the world. We have lost a fantastic musical resource due to the heavy-handed actions of a single corporation.

This is true in Europe, but not in America. The political philosophers who founded America's legal system explicitly rejected that tradition, along with many others they perceived as unjust privilege antithetical to their ideal of individual liberty.

So what are you saying? That the American way should be forced on the rest of the world? UE is a European publisher.
