MPAA and RIAA Present Plan to Recover Megaupload’s Failing Hard Drives
The MPAA and RIAA have asked a Virginia federal court for a preservation order to recover and secure stored Megaupload data. Last year, Megaupload's former hosting company Cogent had warned that several drives, which are preserved as evidence, have become unreadable. The rightsholder groups say they want to act swiftly, before it's too late.
