Chinese Clash With Hollywood



Beijing Jeboo Interactive Science & Technology, a Chinese online movie firm, sued 5 Hollywood studios (including Disney, Columbia and Universal) and the Motion Picture Association America for falsely accusing it of piracy.

"Services like Jeboo have profited from copyright infringement," said Frank Rittman, vice president of MPAA.

Jeboo was accused of pirating 20 popular films including "Pirates of the Carribean2" & "Hitch".

However, the oriental firm Jeboo denies this accuse, by explaining that pirated movies did not originate from it.
Furthermore, it claims itself to be China's largest distributor of non-pirated videos.
