Senate postpones vote on file-swapping bill


 In what appears to be a reaction to last-minute pressure from  
opponents of a file-swapping bill, a U.S. Senate committee postponed a  
vote scheduled for Thursday.

 The Induce Act, which was scheduled for a markup in the Senate  
Judiciary committee, is touted as a way to ban file-swapping networks  
such as Kazaa and Morpheus--but a host of technology companies fear it  
would imperil legitimate products as well.
