This web site has been seized by the Recording Industry Association of America.   The domain and web site were surrendered to the R.I.A.A. pursuant to a federal prosecution and felony plea agreement for conspiracy to violate criminal copyright laws.   Martin L. Gore pled guilty in the United States District Court on March 31st, 2003, to conspiring with others to violate federal copyright laws by illegally importing, marketing, and selling modifications of existing musical pieces, under the title "Counterfeit²". Gore and his co-conspirators used www.martingore.com as the exclusive outlet to market and sell their modified music to individuals. As a result, the Martin L. Gore website is now the property of the RIAA. Individuals involved in this conduct face up to five years in federal prison and a fine of $500,000 for each count charged.
