    EMI and Capitol Records lawsuit

    EMI and Capitol Records filed a further complaint against SeeqPod and its search technology. The available reference states that this suit was ultimately dismissed, but the litigation formed part of the pressure preceding the company's bankruptcy filing.

    Music-industry copyright litigation

    Warner Music Group, Elektra Records, and Rhino Records alleged that SeeqPod facilitated infringement by finding and linking to unauthorized copies of copyrighted music on external servers. The dispute was notable because it addressed the responsibility of a search engine that presented links rather than necessarily hosting the media itself.
