Description
"Intellectual property law cannot be patched, retrofitted, or expanded to contain digitized expression..." (1) Essayist John Perry Barlow made this statement in 1994. (2) His words are no less true today. As the use of computers and the Internet has grown since the mid-1990s, it has become increasingly clear that current copyright law is far from adequate in its application to this modern medium. (3) Amendments to the law have not proven as effective as Congress hoped or intended. (4) In no area is this truer than in the application of copyright law to the digital music industry.
