"If" qualifier
I don't think that's accurate. The copyright violation penalties come from running instances of the software (ZOMG copying it into ram) in an unauthorized fashion. the TOS only comes into play because the product is licensed. If the product were sold (See the recent decision regarding sale of software and Autocad) then the actions taken by the user (causing copies to be loaded into ram) aren't really violations of blizzard's copyright. they would fit into the broad category of things the user could do with a product after first sale. So the violation of the TOS doesn't cause the copyright infringement but the copying does. Protonk (talk) 14:23, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

New source
A new source covering the court case, from yesterday by the BBC. I don't fully understand exactly what's going on with this stuff, but perhaps it might come in handy for expanding on something in this article. -- Sabre (talk) 09:22, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
