Warner Bros. and a number of other record labels filed a lawsuit last
week alleging copyright infringement on the part of an adult
entertainment company whose porn videos allegedly feature actors
lip-synching to popular songs while engaging in sexual acts on camera.

The defendant in the legal action is a Florida-based company, RK
Netmedia, whose websites include realitykings.com
and inthevip.com.

According to the complaint, Reality Kings describes itself as the “World’s
Best Reality Porn Website.” The defendant specializes in a niche
of adult entertainment where adult actors perform sexual acts at
private parties and exclusive clubs.

The record labels say there’s almost no dialogue in these videos,
instead, popular recordings from artists like Katy Perry provide the
soundtrack to the lustful on-screen action. Videos are allegedly named
after songs, and actors are encouraged to lip-sync to the lyrics.

Marc Randazza, the attorney for RK, says he plans to argue that the
defendants’ use of music is “fair use” in this context.
