Retailers, Trade Unions Demand Action On Piracy


The U.K. Entertainment Retailers Association (ERA) and a coalition of trade unions and rights holders has increased the pressure on the U.K. government to tackle illegal file-sharing.

Paul Quirk, newly elected chairman of ERA, told the association's annual general meeting that illegal P2P file-sharing is the greatest challenge facing entertainment retailers and urged members to lobby government for a crackdown on a problem he said "is bleeding our industry dry."
