The Irish Recorded Music Association has announced that it is taking legal action against 10 more people suspected of involvement in illegal file-sharing.

The association says the individuals are abusing copyright by uploading hundreds of thousands of songs onto the Internet without permission.

IRMA is asking internet service providers to hand over the names of those involved.

The association has already reached settlements with 52 other people whom it targeted as part of a crackdown on file-sharing and is in talks with a further 14.
