Thousands of internet users have been told they'll be taken to court unless they pay hundreds of pounds for illegally downloading and sharing hardcore porn movies.

Newsbeat's found out that people across the UK have been accused of using file-sharing networks to get hold of dozens of adult titles without paying for them.

A German company called DigiProtect claims the users are breaking copyright law and is demanding £500 to settle out of court.

£500? Between "thousands of internet users"?

£500 each. It's one small step removed from blackmail, basically.

It's essentially the Web 2.0 version of the "Arse Ticklers Faggots Fan Club" scam from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

To be honest if they're downloading German porn then these people deserve to be named and shamed (I wonder what the overlap would be with the BNP membership list?).

i think receiving a letter at home claiming that someone has been downloading porn, only for the letter to be opened by someone's wife is punishment enough

My ex was never bothered about me having porn. Yet she was bothered when I made another woman pregnant. I mean, come on! Double-standards or what?!

You should have filmed the conception. That way, she wouldn't have known what to think!
