Substantial Similarity in Copyright Law (Intellectual Property Law Library (Practising Law Institute))

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:27:02 -0600

The first treatise to focus exclusively on this important but elusive concept in copyright law, the new Substantial Similarity in Copyright Law gives you an essential understanding of the element that determines a central question: What constitutes wrongful copying? Designed as a systematic approach to the analysis of substantive similarity, this much-needed new resource concentrates on the key factors that the courts use to compare works in copyright infringement litigation. Substantial Similarity in Copyright Law examines substantial similarity as a concept and shows how it differs from probative similarity and striking similarity two related but different principles. It then helps you to distinguish between similarities that trigger a finding of wrongful copying and those similarities that dont. Substantial Similarity in Copyright Law clarifies for you the principal tests that the courts use in considering substantial similarity, which are all designed to help determine whether the copying is quantitatively and qualitatively sufficient to support the conclusion of infringement. This painstaking, in-depth, plain-English analysis of the circuits peculiarities in approach and language cuts through the confusion caused by the multiplicity of tests used by the federal courts and gives you direct access to the guiding principles in your home circuit. Youll learn how substantial similarity tests are applied to a wide range of copyrightable subject matter, including books, music, audiovisual works, and computer programs. And youll discover how substantial similarity is proved at different stages in litigation, including the role played by expert testimony in the presentation of proof. Substantial Similarity in Copyright Law provides you with illustrations of numerous examples of substantial similarity from reported decisions, including drawings, song lyrics, architecture, fabric designs, photographs, and useful articles.

Intellectual Property: Patents, Trademarks, and Copyright (Nutshell Series)

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:26:52 -0600

It has been said, with respect to tort law that anyone can recognize a punch in the nose. Unlike a punch in the nose, "Patents and copyrights approach, nearer than any other class of cases belonging to forensic discussion to what may be called the metaphysics of the law, where the distinctions are, or at least may be, very subtle and refined, and, sometimes, almost evanescent." This text, by famed Harvard professor Arthur Miller, includes patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Further, it addresses torts and property; antitrust and government regulation; concepts of federalism and state and federal conflicts. The text provides the scope and highlights you need to excel in understanding this field. This will enable you to answer exam questions more quickly and accurately, and enhance your skills as an attorney.

Knowledge was passed from person to person through speech. It was obvious that, as the speech could not be touched and seized, knowledge could therefore not be owned in the same way as we own objects. Knowledge was clearly a matter of human relationships. With the invention of writing, all possible means were used to store information: bones, shells, clay, stone, animal skin, paper, wood, and metal. They all shared a common point: they materialized information. This led to people and lawyers coming to believe that knowledge could be an object of property, and ultimately, the concept of intellectual property. Considering the author's right as a right of property was not of great inconvenience as long as knowledge remained materialized. As digitalization has once again dematerialized knowledge, we have returned to the beginning of the story, where the relationships between people were the most important point about sharing and passing information. From this perspective, it is easy to understand why the now outdated copyright laws and business models of the printed book industry should be modernized. They should take more into account the balance of people's relationships, instead of staying focused on the defense of an impossible property. In the emerging virtual book market - made possible by the existence of digitalization, print-on-demand and the Internet - intellectual property is not the only impossible legal concept. Justice as the art of sharing scarcity is also useless. Easy to read, this book proposes guidelines to modernize copyright law and a philosophy of justice suited to the virtual economy. Without it, it will be impossible either to create an efficient copyright law or to collectively draw on all the benefits that new communication technologies can bring us.

Unlike most intellectual property survey materials, this book deals exclusively with copyright issues, allowing for more in-depth coverage than is found in more generalized materials. The material is presented in a user-friendly format and describes complex concepts in an understandable manner. The guide contains a detailed, user-friendly table of contents and a complete table of cases.

This text provides an outline of the law of its specific topic, not the prose presentation of a treatise or hornbook that is found in many existing study guides. As a result, it is more streamlined and easier to use for readers who are looking for quick answers to specific questions. The guide provides clear and precise synopses of copyright concepts and issues, with the most recent statutory and case authorities.

Lind covers the basic concepts of copyright law, including statutory prerequisites, subject matter, ownership, exclusive rights, formalities, duration, termination, infringement, defenses, and remedies. In addition, the work analyzes new copyright legislation, including the Digital Theft Deterrence and Copyright Damages Improvement Act of 1999, the Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act of 1999, the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, and the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act.

This study guide also provides an up-to-date presentation of Internet issues such as the enhanced protection for digital materials, the Audio Home Recording Act, public performance rights for the transmission of digital sound recordings, limitations on online service provider liability, and the protection of computer screen displays.

Copyright Limitations and Contracts - An Analysis of the Contractual Overridability of Limitations (Information Law, 9)

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:26:17 -0600

Traditional copyright law strikes a balance between an author's control of original material and society's interest in the free flow of ideas, information, and commerce. In today's digitally networked environment, this balance has shifted dramatically to one side, as powerful rights holders contractually impose terms and conditions of use far beyond the bounds set by copyright law. This book explores this conflict, focusing on statutory copyright limitations that enshrine constitutional rights such as freedom of expression and privacy, foster dissemination of knowledge, safeguard competition, and protect authors from market failure. It explains the rationale for these limitations and questions the legality of overriding them by contractual means. The author finds a complex array of factors clouding the emergence of coherent rules in the matter and points out that the United States' Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) leaves this issue essentially unresolved. Among the author's insights is that, contrary to the commonly held notion that the Internet is a bastion of free speech, in fact it is now possible (via encryption technology) to exercise absolute control over copyrighted material, even under circumstances of global mass distribution.

The Complete Guide to Patents, Copyrights, and Trademarks: What You Need to Know Explained Simply

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:26:15 -0600

Hundreds of thousands of people apply for patents, copyrights, and trademarks in the United States every year. For example, the United States Patent and Trademark office reports that 452,633 patent applications were filed in 2006. You can easily become one of these people if you have created the greatest American invention, if you are the next Stephen King and have written a book to prove it, or if you have designed an eye-catching logo for your company. The Complete Guide to Patents, Copyrights, and Trademarks will provide you with all the information you need to know about acquiring, registering, maintaining, and protecting your intellectual property. A patent is a grant of property rights to the inventor and essentially excludes others from making, using, and selling your invention, whereas a trademark is a word, symbol, or device used to indicate the source of goods and to distinguish your goods from those of others. A copyright, on the other hand, protects original works and the form of the expression rather than the subject matter. This new, exhaustively researched book will help you decide which of the three you need to apply for, as well as which things can be patented, trademarked, and copyrighted and which cannot. In this book, you will learn how to file an application, how to register, how to avoid infringement, and how to avoid common problems. Additionally, you will become knowledgeable about where to file; the fees involved; laws and regulations associated with the process; the differences between copyrights, trademarks, and patents; the differences between utility, design, and plant patents; who may apply; attorneys and agents; and the forms you need to fill out. Whether you are applying for a patent, copyright, or trademark, this book will provide you with all the necessary information necessary to do so. The Complete Guide to Patents, Copyrights, and Trademarks is the only book you need to read if you want to protect your intellectual property.

From the author: In the 1990's, the development of "streaming" technology allowed webcasters to begin broadcasting music on the Internet. The public took advantage of a plethora of free media players, and the number of web-based radio stations soared. However, a crippling dispute over broadcast rates left the viability of this technology in doubt. This Note criticizes current policies that curtail radio streaming by providing harsh financial restrictions on webcasters. In looking to the future, this Note argues that Congress should extend licensing exemptions to cover those Internet stations most like their AM/FM counterparts who do not have to pay additional fees.

Copyright Exceptions: The Digital Impact (Cambridge Intellectual Property and Information Law)

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:25:58 -0600

Copyright 'exceptions' or 'users' rights' have become a highly controversial aspect of copyright law. Most recently, Member States of the European Union have been forced to amend their systems of exceptions so as to comply with the Information Society Directive. Taking the newly amended UK legislation as a case study, this book examines why copyright exceptions are necessary and the forces that have shaped the present legislative regime in the UK. It seeks to further our understanding of the exceptions by combining detailed doctrinal analysis with insights gained from a range of other sources. The principal argument of the book is that the UK's current system of 'permitted acts' is much too restrictive and hence is in urgent need of reform, but that paradoxically the Information Society Directive points the way towards a much more satisfactory approach.

Art and Museum Law: Cases and Materials

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:25:37 -0600

The art world has long had a symbiotic relationship with museums. These institutions provide important assistance in the development and promotion of artists. The great variety of museums, however, provide educational experiences in many subject areas in addition to art. Natural history, cultural, and historical museums all work toward increasing and protecting their collections so that they can better serve those who visit their institutions. Museums have become more than mere repositories of artifacts. They have become central meeting places in their communities.

It provides recent court decisions, interesting examples of relevant ethical, sociological, political, and legal conflicts, and nearly fifty problems posed for analysis. By addressing issues ranging from whether paintings by elephants constitute "art," to whether a museum is liable for a defamatory email sent by an employee, the book raises issues that are enjoyable as well as informative. This text does not attempt an encyclopedic coverage of topics, but its sixteen chapters are designed to provide information concerning a wide selection of issues. The comprehensive and diverse materials are intended to be used by those studying these issues in law schools, art institutes, and museum studies programs.

Digital Copyright

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:25:02 -0600

In 1998, copyright lobbyists succeeded in persuading Congress to enact laws greatly expanding copyright owners' control over individuals' private uses of their works. The efforts to enforce these new rights have resulted in highly publicised legal battles between established media, and new upstarts. In this enlightening and well-argued book, law professor Jessica Litman questions whether copyright laws crafted by lawyers and their lobbyists really make sense for the vast majority of us. Should every interaction between ordinary consumers and copyright-protected works be restricted by law? Is it practical to enforce such laws, or expect consumers to obey them? What are the effects of such laws on the exchange of information in a free society? Litman's critique exposes the 1998 copyright law as an incoherent patchwork. She argues for reforms that reflect common sense and the way people actually behave in their daily digital interactions. This paperback edition includes an afterword that comments on recent developments, such as the end of the Napster story, the rise of peer-to-peer file sharing, the escalation of a full-fledged copyright war, the filing of lawsuits against thousands of individuals, and the June 2005 Supreme Court decision in the Grokster case.

Music and Copyright

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:58 -0600

Copyright lies at the very heart of the music business. It determines how music is marketed, artists are rewarded, and all the uses to which their work is put. And copyright claims and counter-claims are the source of recurring conflict: Who wrote what and when? Who owns these sounds? What are you allowed to do with them? Disputes about copying and theft are becoming ever noisier with digital technology and the new possibilities of sampling and downloading and large-scale piracy.
This book has been written to explain the copyright system to non-legal specialists and to show why copyright issues are so fascinating and so important. Copyright is analyzed as a matter of philosophy and economics as well as law. It is approached from the contrasting perspectives of composers, performers, producers and bootleggers. Copyright law is seen to be central to the relationship between the global entertainment industry and local musical practices. The questions raised here are not just about music. They concern the very meaning of intellectual property rights in the context of rapid global and technological change. And they are not just about big business. They impinge on all our lives.

Copyright's Paradox

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:47 -0600

The United States Supreme Court famously labeled copyright "the engine of free expression" because it provides a vital economic incentive for much of the literature, commentary, music, art, and film that makes up our public discourse. Yet today's copyright law also does the opposite--it is often used to quash news reporting, political commentary, church dissent, historical scholarship, cultural critique, and artistic expression.
In Copyright's Paradox, Neil Weinstock Netanel explores the tensions between copyright law and free speech, revealing how copyright can impose unacceptable burdens on expression. Netanel provides concrete illustrations of how copyright often prevents speakers from effectively conveying their message, tracing this conflict across both traditional and digital media and considering current controversies such as the remix and copying culture rampant on YouTube and MySpace, hip-hop music and digital sampling, and the Google Book Search litigation. The author juxtaposes the dramatic expansion of copyright holders' proprietary control against the individual's newly found ability to digitally cut, paste, edit, remix, and distribute sound recordings, movies, TV programs, graphics, and texts the world over. He tests whether, in light of these developments and others, copyright still serves as a vital engine of free expression and he assesses how copyright does--and does not--burden speech. Taking First Amendment values as his lodestar, Netanel argues that copyright should be limited to how it can best promote robust debate and expressive diversity, and he presents a blueprint for how that can be accomplished.
Copyright and free speech will always stand in some tension. But there are ways in which copyright can continue to serve as an engine of free expression while leaving ample room for speakers to build on copyrighted works to convey their message, express their personal commitments, and create new art. This book shows us how.

No Law: Intellectual Property in the Image of an Absolute First Amendment

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:44 -0600

The original text of the Constitution grants Congress the power to create a regime of intellectual property protection. The first amendment, however, prohibits Congress from enacting any law that abridges the freedoms of speech and of the press. While many have long noted the tension between these provisions, recent legal and cultural developments have transformed mere tension into conflict. No Law offers a new way to approach these debates.

In eloquent and passionate style, Lange and Powell argue that the First Amendment imposes absolute limits upon claims of exclusivity in intellectual property and expression, and strips Congress of the power to restrict personal thought and free expression in the name of intellectual property rights. Though the First Amendment does not repeal the Constitutional intellectual property clause in its entirety, copyright, patent, and trademark law cannot constitutionally license the private commodification of the public domain.

The authors claim that while the exclusive rights currently reflected in intellectual property are not in truth needed to encourage intellectual productivity, they develop a compelling solution for how Congress, even within the limits imposed by an absolute First Amendment, can still regulate incentives for intellectual creations. Those interested in the impact copyright doctrines have on freedom of expression in the U.S. and the theoretical and practical aspects of intellectual property law will want to take a closer look at this bracing, resonant work.

The Internationalisation of Copyright Law: Books, Buccaneers and the Black Flag in the Nineteenth Century (Cambridge Intellectual Property and Information Law)

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:39 -0600

Technological developments have shaped copyright law's development, and now the prospect of endless, effortless digital copying poses a significant challenge to modern copyright law. Many complain that copyright protection has burgeoned wildly, far beyond its original boundaries. Some have questioned whether copyright can survive the digital age. From a historical perspective, however, many of these 'new' challenges are simply fresh presentations of familiar dilemmas. This book explores the history of international copyright law, and looks at how this history is relevant today. It focuses on international copyright during the nineteenth century, as it affected Europe, the British colonies (particularly Canada), America, and the UK. As we consider the reform of modern copyright law, nineteenth-century experiences offer highly relevant empirical evidence. Copyright law has proved itself robust and flexible over several centuries. If directed with vision, Seville argues, it can negotiate cyberspace.

International Copyright Law And Policy

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:20 -0600

This book deals comprehensively with the major treaties and conventions covering the law of international copyright and neighbouring rights. It explains the complex legal, economic and political background to the treaties and their contents, and how they inter-relate. There is also practical commercial discussion of how copyright and neighbouring rights are treated in international trade measures such as GATT, WTO, NAFTA, and bilateral and unilateral treaties, with a section devoted to how unilateral trade measures are applied by the USA in particular. There is also some discussion of how international copyright law and neighbouring rights may develop in the future. The book is intended to be a definitive account of the law of international copyright and neighbouring rights, but it is also intended to be accessible to non-specialist practitioners. It is fully cross-referenced to a forthcoming companion volume, European Copyright Law and Policy (expected to publish in 2008), offering readers a comprehensive approach to the subject.The author has been consulted on copyright policy on numerous occasions by various governmental and non-governmental organisations within and outside the EC, and therefore is ideally placed to give an inside view on how policy is formed.

Copyright Cases and Materials

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:17 -0600

With stimulating questions, comprehensive notes, and teachable and well edited cases as its hallmarks, this is the authoritative law school casebook for the study of copyright law. The book presents up to the minute materials ncluding key decisions of the Supreme Court dealing both with new technologies and with the more "traditional" issues in the field. The increasingly important issue of secondary liability is represented by the Court s 2005 decision in MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd., as well as by other cases dealing with internet service providers. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and particularly its provisions on technological protection measures, are also covered, through well-selected cases and textual treatment. There is also discussion of the cutting-edge issues arising from the delivery of music recordings and motion pictures on the internet, both legally and illegally, and the implications for the statute s complex compulsory-license provisions. A fully revised and updated chapter on Fair Use traces the application of that doctrine in both the digital and the more traditional contexts. The Supreme Court decision in Eldred v. Ashcroft on the extension of the copyright term, and its progeny in the lower courts, are also addressed. Expanded attention is also given to other emerging constitutional issues, particularly Congress s power to enact copyright-like legislation under the Commerce Clause. Other topics include the increasingly demanding judicial attitude toward copyright formalities, protection for government-authored and incorporated works, preemption of state law and international issues. There will also be more photographs illustrating current cases dealing with originality and infringement. The casebook will continue its position as the outstanding book in the field comprehensive and thorough, and stimulating and enjoyable for both teacher and students

Harry Potter and the Order of the Court: The J.K. Rowling Copyright Case and the Question of Fair Use

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 14:24:13 -0600

The adventures of wizard-in-training Harry Potter may have ended but the drama continues, most recently in federal court in Manhattan, where a decision has recently been handed down in the much-publicized copyright case brought by J.K. Rowling seeking to prevent the publication of a Harry Potter encyclopedia.

The case is of interest to Harry Potter fans and the general public. It deals with current copyright issues of particular interest to writers and bloggers. It also deals with the creative process behind the Potter series.

Harry Potter & the Order of the Court discusses the court's decision and its broader implications for those who write, both online and in print.

The case was highlighted by Ms. Rowling taking the witness stand in her first courtroom appearance. Her dramatic testimony -- offering insights into her creative process and her emotional attachment to the Harry Potter series -- is included, both direct and cross-examination.

Beyond the star presence of Ms. Rowling, the case is of general interest as it involves an important but little understood aspect of copyright law: the doctrine of "fair use." Fair use refers to situations where one is allowed to use material from a copyrighted work without seeking permission from the author, such as a book critic quoting from a novel or a music critic using a short clip of a song.

Fair use applies whether you write on paper or online. But the doctrine has taken on added importance in the Internet Age where almost all of us "publish" in one form or another, be it through creating websites, writing blogs or uploading content. And as authors or publishers, we often feel the need to quote, closely paraphrase, or otherwise use material others have created. This is where fair use comes in.

Harry Potter & the Order of the Court discusses fair use as it relates to the J.K. Rowling case and in terms of the broader application of the doctrine, offering many specific examples as to what likely does, and does not, constitute fair use.

In addition to Ms. Rowling s testimony, we have included selected court documents filed in the litigation, including the court decision. Perhaps because the case involves one of the most popular fictional series of all time, these court documents make for fairly compelling reading, rather like a novel one cannot put down.
