Copyrights take a bite out of Apple

However, IT and copyright experts are pessimistic about the judge's suggestions.

Xie Wen, former president of Yahoo China, said other technology companies will not change the management of their downloading platforms, and such infringements will continue. Uploaded information is abundant and complicated, which means companies, no matter how big or small, have huge difficulties in distinguishing infringements, he said.

"What they (companies) can do is make it stricter for publishers, but this may affect their online platforms' popularity and result in economic losses," Xie said.

Yang Shuo, a specialist with a decade of experience in cybermanagement, agreed. He said it is impossible for these companies to improve their verification systems with technical solutions.

"The verification must rely on human power, but some small companies won't spend the money or the time to employ people to do such work," he said. "So such disputes will be hard to avoid in the future."
