Hanson Sueing MP3.com
Hanson is sueing MP3.com. They want them to pay up for tunes it once copied to create the online music locker service known as My.MP3.com. The guys, along with their own music-publishing company, Jam N' Bread, filed a copyright infringement lawsuit in a Los Angles federal court this month, accusing MP3.com of making illegal digital copies of
"MMMBop" and "Thinking of You." However, of more than a dozen copyright
infringement lawsuits filed against MP3.com since January 2000, Hanson's might be the first in which one of the parties was too young to wage a legal fight without a court-approved guardian. I guess we'll have to see what happens in court!

Hanson at the Lakers NBA championship game!
Zac, Taylor, and Isaac Hanson, cheering on the Lakers the night of their NBA championship win. Saddle Ranch Chop House. Sunset Strip. Joining the trio were glitzy gals and music industry dudes. The crew consumed heaps of grub and beverages. (The boys drank Coke, Diet Coke and iced tea--the waiter swears on a stack of CDs.) The bros and their pals staked out a table near the hang's mechanical bull, and Isaac and Taylor mounted the steed in a postgame frenzy of bad decisions. Zac, the youngest Hanson for those of you keeping track, was clearly looking for other forms of intoxication, as he watched with amusement and chatted up a fox-ay young femme. - Eonline.com
As you can see...
