According to British Recording Music Industry (BPI), the websites include FilesTube, 1337x, BitSnoop, ExtraTorrent, Monova, TorrentHound, Torrentreactor and Torrentz.eu in addition to several others. BPI chief executive said Geoff Taylor said: "We asked the sites to stop infringing copyright but unfortunately they did not and we were left with little choice but to apply to the court." The High Court judge has also ordered the sites to be blocked from yesterday.
