It's, uh, bad. Two UK men have been charged with illegally downloading Michael Jackson's back catalogue.
The alleged hackers, James Marks, 26, from Daventry in Northamptonshire, and James McCormick, 25, from Blackpool, denied charges, according to The Guardian.
The pair were charged in Leicester crown court under the Computer Misuse Act and the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act.
They were released on bail and are are due to stand trial next January, according to The Sun.
More than 50,000 music files were illegally downloaded from Sony's servers. Most were by Jackson, while other artists' work was also hacked. Sony did not release a statement, or provide comment.
The Sun reports that the security breach is Sony Music's second in a year.
The value of the theft is estimate at £160million - the largest cyber attack ever on a music firm.
Sony bought the music catalogue for £250million, giving them seven years of rights over his music.
In 2010 Jupiter research valued the amount of music downloaded in the UK at £219m. This single theft more than doubles their total estimate.
