Sort of, at least. The European ISP was running a Mercora-powered service called "Juke Box". The service got shut down after the IFPI complained about missing license agreements - even tho they apparently used the same type of licensing that is in place for the US service of Mercora. BBC News quotes someone from Tiscali saying:
"I don't quite understand why the European record labels appear to have a problem, whereas the ones in the US don't."
