The adult entertainment company Perfect 10 is suing Amazon and its search engine subsidiary, A9, for allegedly giving users a sneak peek of its erotica.

Perfect 10 charges its members $25.50 a month to pore over pictures of sultry nudes, and it claims the search engine allows web surfers to see some of the content for free.

Publisher Norm Zada claims his site, while erotic, is a world apart from sites offering pornographic content involving deviant sexual acts. Mr. Zada has alleged that search engines A9.com and Google are displaying links to pornographic sites that carry Perfect 10's copyright content without its permission.
