Record Labels Come Together, Sue Porn Site
"Don't Stop (Til You Get Enough)," "SexyBack" and "I Kissed a Girl" could easily be mistaken for porn titles, not popular songs -- instead they are just the center of a major lawsuit involving music and porn.
Warner Bros., Eleketra, Atlantic, Bad Boy and others have filed a lawsuit against RK Netmedia and RealityKings.com (NSFW!!!!) ... claiming the websites use their music as the soundtrack -- and sometimes even the inspiration -- for porn videos.
According to the lawsuit, the songs are often playing in the background while "models or actors are 'performing' their scenes." Sometimes, according to the suit, "the performers 'lip-sync' the lyrics of a song while engaged in intercourse or other sexual activity."
On some occasions, the record labels claim, the titles of the videos are derived from the songs they use -- like "Bringing Sexy Back" uses Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack."
The labels are asking for $150,000 per each copyright infringed -- and their are 18 pages of infringements.

wtf? <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? -->
it has nothing to do with the thread.
...I really hope they win ...
Wow - I didn't think of it that way. Thank you!
I don't think that song is very suitable for a porn movie, don't they mostly have that ridiculously annoying holiday-like kind of music? Must indeed be a message from a too quiet TMZ to keep on going. That makes more sense to me than this. But hey, I'm not a porn movie expert, so I could be wrong! <!-- s --><!-- s -->

I thought that too - but was too embarrassed to post it. I thought that "don't stop till you get enough' was the message for us, cos the rest just does not make any sense for the hoax.
I could understand if they had Dirty Diana, or Give in to Me but even those are probably suited for just an xrated movie not hard core porn - lol.
I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the REALITY of Therealitykings.com website.
It Is a REAL pornsite, I have heard of it before this.
I went and checked it out just now. lol
Not my thang but I am a curious cat.
Peace
but honestly there are times when porn is not such a bad thing LOL
Well said voiceforthesilent!
Thank you!
Love and Blessings!

There you go!
Michael actually did have porn.
At least, that what they said they found during the raid of Neverland. But, most of that case was bullshit anyway. So... yeah never know.
Are there guys that don't have porn? I couldn't name one...
