Looks like Antigua’s gamble paid off. The World Trade Organization OK’d Antigua’s request to suspend U.S. copyrights, which will allow the country to move forward with a government-run download portal that offers *copyrighted* movies, music, TV shows and software. Antigua, an island located in the Caribbean, was granted preliminary approval for suspension of U.S. copyrights in 2007. That decision stemmed from a trade dispute that started when America barred access to Antigua-based online gambling sites.
