ISPs "could block" access to music labels' websites

I like this one. There are now rumblings among some Irish ISPs of revenge against the music industry, should it succeed in its current quest to have music-sharing websites blocked from ISPs' customers.

Such sweet revenge would take the form of blocking access to the websites of EMI, Sony, Universal,  Warner and Irma, among others. Their approach: you piss on our turf, we'll piss on yours.

It's unlikely to happen, as Eircom certainly wouldn't play ball and it is by far the largest ISP. Still, that fact that it's being discussed shows a bit of creativity among the ISPs.
