Infoworld
is reporting that a Northern Illinois District
Court judge has granted a preliminary injunction in favor of the RIAA
against Aimster (now known as Madster). According to the story, the
judge thinks that Aimster/Madster is 'a
service whose very raison d'être appears to be the facilitation of
and contribution to copyright infringement on a massive scale.'

Post script: Furdlog points out that "Madster" is a real person and has a blog: Music Pundit. She has posted the injunction, but here's a scanned, PDF'd version, in case you'd like to print & read.
