ISPs urged to help combat pirates

The call will be made in a speech, seen by the Financial Times, to be delivered by Feargal Sharkey, chief executive of British Music Rights, at the awards ceremony of the Internet Services Providers' Association. "My key message to you tonight is that the music industry is embracing change," wrote Mr Sharkey, former singer with 1970s punk band The Undertones. "This is the debate we need to get back on track: how to unlock that insatiable demand for music, and in a way that grows both of our businesses. Surely the bright and brilliant minds in this room can help figure this out?" (Financial Times)
