LONDON, May 20 (Reuters) - A new music download service
launched on Tuesday in Madrid tests a legal loophole in Spanish
copyright law that appears to give Web sites permission to sell
songs online without consent from record companies.
Running under a banner on its homepage that reads "No Rules.
No limits", the new service, Puretunes.com, is sure to raise the
ire of the music industry. - http://finance.lycos.com/home/news/story.asp?story=34260441
