1 Plaintiffs Amazon Content Services, LLC (“Amazon”); Columbia Pictures
2 Industries, Inc. (“Columbia”); Disney Enterprises, Inc. (“Disney”); Netflix Studios,
3 LLC (“Netflix”); Paramount Pictures Corporation (“Paramount”); Sony Pictures
4 Television Inc. (“Sony Pictures Television”); Twentieth Century Fox Film
5 Corporation (“Fox”); Universal City Studios Productions LLLP, Universal Cable
6 Productions LLC, and Universal Television LLC, (collectively, “Universal”); and
7 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. (“Warner Bros.”) (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) bring
8 this Complaint against Set Broadcast, LLC d/b/a Setvnow, Jason Labossiere, and
9 Nelson Johnson (Labossiere and Johnson are referred to jointly as the “Individual
10 Defendants,” and the Individual Defendants and Set Broadcast, LLC are referred to
11 collectively as “Defendants”) under the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.).
12 This Court has subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331, 1338(a),
13 and 17 U.S.C. § 501(b). Plaintiffs allege, on personal knowledge as to themselves
14 and information and belief as to others, as follows:
15 INTRODUCTION
16 1. Defendants market and sell subscriptions to “Setvnow,” a software
17 application that Defendants urge their customers to use as a tool for the mass
18 infringement of Plaintiffs’ copyrighted motion pictures and television shows
19 (“Copyrighted Works”). Defendants tell customers that for “only $20/month,”
20 customers can “Stream over 500 live channels” of television and “Thousands of On
21 Demand entertainment options,” all with “No long term commitments,” “No
22 activation fees,” “No cancellation fees,” and “No credit check.” Defendants
23 encourage their customers to download and install Setvnow on their mobile devices,
24 computers, and other computer hardware devices.

9 2. To attract customers who would prefer a preloaded box, Defendants
10 also market and sell “ST-110 Set Top Box” computer hardware devices that come
11 preloaded with the Setvnow software. Defendants tell “customers who want more
12 of a cable box experience” that for just $89, they can “simply turn it on and watch
13 TV” without having to do anything more than “PLUG AND PLAY.”
14 3. Whether their customers choose a subscription or a preloaded box,
15 what Defendants actually sell is illegal access to Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works.
16 When used as Defendants intend and instruct, Setvnow gives Defendants’ customers
17 access to sources that stream Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works without authorization.
18 These streams are illegal public performances of Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works.
19 4. For the customers who use Setvnow, the service provides hallmarks of
20 using authorized streaming services—a user-friendly interface and reliable access to
21 popular content—but with a notable exception: the customers only pay money to
22 Defendants, not to Plaintiffs and other content creators upon whose copyrighted
23 works Defendants’ business depends. Plaintiffs bring this action to stop
24 Defendants’ intentional inducement of, and knowing and material contribution to,
25 the widespread infringement of Plaintiffs’ rights.

14 transmissions of the above-listed television channels, convert the copies of the
15 television programs into streaming-friendly formats, and then retransmit the entirety

17 simply clicked once on “DISNEY CHANNEL” would have instant access to a live
18 stream of the Disney Channel.
19 33. For its on-demand options, Setvnow relies on third-party sources that
20 illicitly reproduce copyrighted works and then provide streams of popular content
21 such as movies still exclusively in theaters and television shows.
22 34. Defendants’ customers use Setvnow as follows. First, the customer
23 downloads the Setvnow application on his or her laptop, mobile device, tablet, or

Case 2:18-cv-03325 Document 1 Filed 04/20/18 Page 13 of 25 Page ID #:13

1 42. Defendants advertise Setvnow as a substitute for authorized and
2 legitimate distribution channels such as cable television or video-on-demand
3 services like Amazon Prime Video and Netflix. Defendants urge Setvnow
4 customers to stream infringing content. Defendants tell customers in promotional
5 videos that customers can “start enjoying live TV and videos on demand easily and
6 conveniently,”1 and that Setvnow will “provide the on-demand television shows and
7 movies that you were looking for.”2
8 43. Defendants also pay for sponsored reviews to reach a broader audience
9 of customers. For example, in one sponsored review with over 80,000 video views,
10 the paid reviewer explains to potential customers that “another huge win for Set
11 TV[3] is this on-demand feature and there are new movies, new releases that you can
12 see … so some things that you might have to rent somewhere else it’s free here in
13 your $20 subscription per month and your favorite TV shows are here too,”
14 including “some Netflix exclusive shows.” 4 In another sponsored review with over
15 120,000 video views, the sponsored reviewer promotes Setvnow as a quick and easy
16 way to access on demand movies: “You have new releases right there and you
17 simply click on the movie … you click it and click on play again and here you have
18 the movie just like that in 1 2 3 in beautiful HD quality.”5 This same reviewer

2 explaining that “it only takes ten seconds, literally.”6 Another sponsored review
3 with over 64,000 video views exclaims to potential customers that Setvnow provides
4 “episode after episode of TV show after TV show and you can go and find the ones
5 that you want and of course the newer releases.”7 The review goes on to highlight
6 “the quality [and] the speed” of Setvnow, and explains that the service “work[s]
7 beautifully” because Setvnow “has their own servers which means they’re able to
8 put this out and do a good job with it.”8
9 44. Defendants release and promote software updates to the Setvnow
10 application as a means of ensuring the quality of streams through Setvnow. On their
11 Facebook page, Defendants explain that “Developers are currently doing a patch …
12 as we are trying to improve our service.”9
13 45. The commercial value of Defendants’ business depends on high-
14 volume use of unauthorized content through the Setvnow application. Defendants
15 promise their customers reliable and convenient access to all the content they can
16 stream; customers purchase Setvnow subscriptions based on Defendants’ success—
17 which Defendants tout and promote—in connecting their customers to infringing
18 content. Customers renew their monthly subscriptions because Setvnow connects
19 these customers to high-speed and high-quality streams of infringing content.

1 FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION
2 (Intentionally Inducing the Infringement of Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works,
3 17 U.S.C. § 106)
4 48. Plaintiffs incorporate herein by reference each and every averment
5 contained in paragraphs 1 through 47 inclusive.
6 49. Defendants intentionally induce the infringement of Plaintiffs’
7 exclusive rights under the Copyright Act, including infringement of Plaintiffs’
8 exclusive right to publicly perform their Copyrighted Works. As intended and
9 encouraged by Defendants, Setvnow connects customers to unauthorized online
10 sources that stream Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works. The operators of these source
11 repositories directly infringe Plaintiffs’ public performance rights by providing
12 unauthorized streams of the works to the public, including to Setvnow customers.
13 These operators, or others operating in concert with them, control the facilities and
14 equipment used to store and stream the content, and they actively and directly cause
15 the content to be streamed when Setvnow customers click on a link for the content.
16 50. Defendants induce the aforementioned acts of infringement by
17 supplying the software application that facilitates, enables, and creates direct links
18 between Setvnow customers and the infringing operators of the streaming services,
19 and by actively inducing, encouraging and promoting the use of their software
20 application for blatant copyright infringement.
21 51. Defendants’ intentional inducement of the infringement of Plaintiffs’
22 rights in each of their Copyrighted Works constitutes a separate and distinct act of
23 infringement.
24 52. Defendants’ inducement of the infringement of Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted
25 Works is willful, intentional, and purposeful, and in disregard of and with
26 indifference to the rights of Plaintiffs.

1 53. As a direct and proximate result of the infringement that Defendants
2 intentionally induce, Plaintiffs are entitled to damages and Defendants’ profits in
3 amounts to be proven at trial.
4 54. Alternatively, at their election, Plaintiffs are entitled to statutory
5 damages, up to the maximum amount of $150,000 per work infringed by virtue of

7 be proper under 17 U.S.C. § 504.
8 55. Plaintiffs further are entitled to recover their attorneys’ fees and full
9 costs pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 505.
10 56. As a direct and proximate result of the foregoing acts and conduct,
11 Plaintiffs have sustained and will continue to sustain substantial, immediate and
12 irreparable injury, for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Unless enjoined
13 and restrained by this Court, Defendants will continue to induce infringement of
14 Plaintiffs’ rights in their Copyrighted Works. Plaintiffs are entitled to injunctive

Case 2:18-cv-03325 Document 1 Filed 04/20/18 Page 18 of 25 Page ID #:18

1 unauthorized online sources that stream Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works. The
2 operators of these source repositories directly infringe Plaintiffs’ public performance
3 rights by providing unauthorized streams of the works to the public, including to
4 Setvnow customers. The operators, or others operating in concert with them,
5 control the facilities and equipment used to store and stream the content, and they
6 actively and directly cause the content to be streamed when Setvnow customers
7 click on a link for the content.
8 60. Defendants knowingly and materially contribute to the aforementioned
9 acts of infringement by supplying the software application that facilitates,
10 encourages, enables, and creates direct links between Setvnow customers and
11 infringing operators of the streaming services, and by actively encouraging,
12 promoting, and contributing to the use of their devices for blatant copyright
13 infringement.
14 61. Defendants’ knowing and material contribution to the infringement of
15 Plaintiffs’ rights in each of their Copyrighted Works constitutes a separate and
16 distinct act of infringement.
17 62. Defendants’ knowing and material contribution to the infringement of
18 Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works is willful, intentional, and purposeful, and in
19 disregard of and with indifference to the rights of Plaintiffs.
20 63. As a direct and proximate result of the infringement to which
21 Defendants knowingly and materially contribute, Plaintiffs are entitled to damages
22 and Defendants’ profits in amounts to be proven at trial.
23 64. Alternatively, at their election, Plaintiffs are entitled to statutory
24 damages, up to the maximum amount of $150,000 per work infringed by virtue of
25 Defendants’ willful, knowing, and material contribution to infringement, or for such
26 other amounts as may be proper under 17 U.S.C. § 504.
27 65. Plaintiffs further are entitled to recover their attorneys’ fees and full
28 costs pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 505.

1 66. As a direct and proximate result of the foregoing acts and conduct,
2 Plaintiffs have sustained and will continue to sustain substantial, immediate and
3 irreparable injury, for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Unless enjoined
4 and restrained by this Court, Defendants will continue to knowingly and materially
5 contribute to the infringement of Plaintiffs’ rights in their Copyrighted Works.
6 Plaintiffs are entitled to injunctive relief under 17 U.S.C. § 502.
7 PRAYER FOR RELIEF
8 WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for judgment against Defendants and for the
9 following relief:

11 be found; alternatively, at Plaintiffs’ election, for maximum statutory damages; or
12 for such other amounts as may be proper pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 504(c).
13 2. For preliminary and permanent injunctions (a) enjoining Defendants
14 and their officers, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, and all persons acting in
15 active concert or participation with them, from publicly performing or otherwise
16 infringing in any manner (including without limitation by materially contributing to
17 or intentionally inducing the infringement of) any right under copyright in any of
18 Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Works, including without limitation by publicly performing
19 those works, or by distributing any software or providing any service or device that
20 does or facilitates any of the foregoing acts; and (b) impounding all ST-110 devices
21 in Defendants’ possession, custody, or control, and any and all documents or other
22 records in Defendants’ possession, custody, or control relating to Defendants’
23 contribution to and inducement of the infringement of Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted
24 Works.
25 3. For prejudgment interest according to law.
26 4. For Plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and full costs incurred in this action
27 pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 505.
