Atari, Electronic Arts, and Vivendi Universal Games have filed a lawsuit in New York federal court against 321 Studios to block sale of the software “Games X Copy,” alleging that the tool violates the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The software copies discs, circumventing the protection code built into the games in the process, the three publishers filing the suit say. Film studios have filed similar lawsuits in regards to DVD-copying capabilities, and a federal judge in San Francisco ordered the St. Louis-based company to remove its product from the market, according to ZDNet. The suit seeks an injunction against the further sale of the product, a recall of versions currently for sale, and the destruction or surrender of all copies of the program, Reuters reported.
