I don't recall saying it wasn't. I said it wasn't /criminal/, and therefore not 'illegal'. Copyright infringement of the kind we're discussing here is a statutory tort, not a crime.


There is a presumption at law, however, that a letter properly addressed, stamped, and mailed is in due course delieved. So a letter sent to them would put them on notice of the violation.

As far as it not being worth their time to litigate, here you're probably right. I haven't managed to find a single case dealing with a MU* for copyright infringement in either Lexis or Westlaw, so if there's one out there, it's not reported anywhere.
