Video sites top dispute cases

The China Academy of Telecommunication Research unveiled an annual Internet copyright report in mid July, which noted that online video disputes accounted for more than a half of the total infringement cases concerning Internet communication in 2013. Video-sharing portals and websites that provide video search services have become the most vulnerable to litigations. Courts in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou dealt with more than two-thirds of total online copyright cases handled by local courts across the country.
