The U.K. music-industry trade organization, the BPI, is to sue popular Russian download site AllofMP3.com, claiming it is operating outside the law and not sharing any of its profits with the artists whose music it sells.

AllofMP3.com sells music singles and albums for download in a fashion similar to rival iTunes, but AllofMP3's offerings typically are much less expensive--1 pound (about $1.87) per album versus iTunes' typical price of 7.99 pounds ($14.85).
