Rightscorp has been steadily growing and we now represent over 1.5
million copyrights, settled over 75,000 infringement cases and

The Company's patent pending digital loss prevention technology
focuses on the infringement of digital content such as music,

implements existing laws to solve copyright infringements by

notifications sent through Internet Service Providers (ISPs). The
Company's technology identifies copyright infringers, who are
offered a reasonable settlement option when compared to the legal
liability defined in the Digital Millennium Copyrights Act (DMCA).
Based on the fact that 22% of all Internet traffic is used to
distribute copyrighted content without permission or compensation
to the creators, Rightscorp is pursuing an estimated $2.3 billion
opportunity and has monetized major media titles through
