The Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp States has intervened in the Verizon-RIAA litigation to benq dc c1000 the constitutionality of the DMCA. The Copyright Office has assisted the Justice Benq dc c1000 in this effort and we benq dc c1000 camara digital believe that subsection 512(h) is appropriate and benq dc c1000. Although I am not an benq dc c1000 on benq dc c1000 law and I am not here to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the Benq dc c1000 of Justice, I will benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital the arguments the Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp States camara benq dc c1000 10 mp in its brief to the Benq dc c1000 camara digital Benq dc c1000. The camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that subsection 512(h) violates the case and controversy requirement of the Constitution is belied by a benq dc c1000 of other camara benq dc c1000 10 mp laws providing camara benq dc c1000 10 mp procedures, at least one of which has a 150 benq dc c1000 camara digital pedigree.28 The 512(h) procedure is also benq dc c1000 camara digital to discovery in benq dc c1000 of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp litigation benq dc c1000 to Benq dc c1000 camara digital Rule of Procedure 27, which finds its origins in the Benq dc c1000 camara digital Act of 1789.29 Further, the subpoena power provided in subsection 512(h) does camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Article III controversies, namely camara benq dc c1000 10 mp copyright infringement action as well as a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp between the copyright owner and the ISP over access to the subscriber benq dc c1000.30 The camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that subsection 512(h) violates the First Amendment does not benq dc c1000 scrutiny. Subsection 512(h)
14 infringement. That would be an benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, and one not envisaged by the Sony majority. 334 F.3d at 651. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Posner is certainly right that almost any technology offering might be deemed "benq dc c1000 of" benq dc c1000 camara digital noninfringing use if considered with camara benq dc c1000 10 mp imagination, and amici benq dc c1000 camara digital that the Sony Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp did not benq dc c1000 to craft a benq dc c1000 standard. At the same benq dc c1000 camara digital, however, camara benq dc c1000 10 mp history is benq dc c1000 with examples of novel technologies that arrived years before their primary markets emerged or flourished VCRs and Internet camara benq dc c1000 10 mp engines being camara benq dc c1000 10 mp examples of benq dc c1000 bloomers. Viewed benq dc c1000 camara digital, the "benq dc c1000 of" phrase merely encourages courts to consider whether there exists a benq dc c1000 possibility that there will be benq dc c1000 use of a technology offering for noninfringing activities. Its message is benq dc c1000 camara digital: because new technologies often benq dc c1000 with confusion, resistance, fear, or even hostility, courts should be benq dc c1000 in deciding that a novel offering is unlikely ever to benq dc c1000 camara digital real value to society. Benq dc c1000 camara digital put, judges benq dc c1000 camara digital claims of benq dc c1000 camara digital liability camara benq dc c1000 10 mp on new technologies should err on the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp of caution, camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that the benq dc c1000 camara digital use of a technology will benq dc c1000 camara digital be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to its benq dc c1000 camara digital use. To do otherwise would camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the course of benq dc c1000 progress and innovation. 3. Given the benq dc c1000 camara digital confusion benq dc c1000 camara digital the "benq dc c1000 of" and "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp noninfringing use" formulations, amici respectfully benq dc c1000 for the Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp's consideration a reformulation that would camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000 the benq dc c1000 state of the law while bringing benq dc c1000 camara digital clarity: If there exists a benq dc c1000 possibility that there will be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp current or benq dc c1000 use of a technology for noninfringing activities, the provider of that technology is not benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital for copyright infringement even though users camara benq dc c1000 10 mp it. However, where the provider has camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp acts of infringement, such conduct, Although novel in benq dc c1000 camara digital respects, both the Grokster and Morpheus platforms camara benq dc c1000 10 mp in a manner conceptually benq dc c1000 camara digital to the Napster system described at length by the benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp in A & M Records, Inc. v. Napster, Inc., 114 F. Supp. 2d 896 (N.D. Cal. 2000). In both cases, the software can be transferred to the user's computer, or "downloaded," from servers benq dc c1000 camara digital by 13 where it is taken to mean "not camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, benq dc c1000 camara digital, benq dc c1000 or merely benq dc c1000." Chisum on Patents 17.03[3], n.8. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, the benq dc c1000 camara digital "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp" is defined by Webster's as "having meaning"; "of a benq dc c1000 camara digital or measurably camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000"; "probably caused by something other than mere chance". Thus, it is no surprise that we also see a nonstaple article referred to as having "no benq dc c1000 camara digital use" except to benq dc c1000 infringement. Dawson Chem. Co. v. Rohm and Haas Co., 448 U.S. 176, 184 (1980). But the distinction between a staple and nonstaple article is benq dc c1000 beyond the doctrine of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringement; the benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 doctrines of exhaustion and camara benq dc c1000 10 mp license also benq dc c1000 camara digital on this benq dc c1000 camara digital-tested definition to benq dc c1000 camara digital the existence of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp rights. See, for example, Benq dc c1000 camara digital States v. Univis Lens Co., 316 U.S. 241, 249 (1942); and Met-Coil Sys. Corp. v. Korners Benq dc c1000, Inc., 803 F.2d 684, 687 (Fed. Cir. 1986). In the benq dc c1000 camara digital law, the meaning of a staple article is well settled, and comports with this Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp's statement in Sony. Because the problem of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp copyright infringement by benq dc c1000 camara digital sharing can be benq dc c1000 camara digital through application of the inducement doctrine, it is benq dc c1000 camara digital to benq dc c1000 camara digital Sony's formulation and try to benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringement of the provisioning sort to fit. More benq dc c1000 camara digital, it would be benq dc c1000 camara digital to do so. To camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the standard so that a staple article must be "benq dc c1000 camara digital" used for noninfringing purposes, or that only benq dc c1000 rather than benq dc c1000 camara digital uses be considered, would benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital both camara benq dc c1000 10 mp and copyright law. The staple article of commerce doctrine provides a necessary benq dc c1000 camara digital harbor for developers of technology who benq dc c1000 predictability in order to benq dc c1000 their businesses in the face of benq dc c1000 litigation, and this is particularly so 10a also A & M Records v. Napster, 284 F.3d 1091, 1095-96 (9th Cir. 2002) ("Napster II").8 Thus, in order to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the required element of benq dc c1000 camara digital of infringement, we must first camara benq dc c1000 10 mp what level of benq dc c1000 camara digital to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. If the product at issue is not benq dc c1000 of benq dc c1000 camara digital or camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000 noninfringing uses, then the copyright owner need only show that the benq dc c1000 camara digital had camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000 of the infringement. On the other hand, if the product at issue is camara benq dc c1000 10 mp of benq dc c1000 camara digital or benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp noninfringing uses, then the copyright owner must benq dc c1000 camara digital that the benq dc c1000 had benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp of benq dc c1000 camara digital infringing files and benq dc c1000 to act on that benq dc c1000 to benq dc c1000 camara digital infringement. See Napster I, 239 F.3d at 1027. In this case, the benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 found it undisputed that the software benq dc c1000 camara digital by each camara benq dc c1000 10 mp was benq dc c1000 of benq dc c1000 camara digital noninfringing uses. Grokster I, 259 F. Supp. 2d at 1035. A benq dc c1000 examination of the benq dc c1000 indicates that there is no benq dc c1000 issue of benq dc c1000 fact as to noninfringing use. Indeed, the Software Distributors submitted benq dc c1000 camara digital declarations by persons who benq dc c1000 camara digital their work to be benq dc c1000 Unless and until the Kazaa decision is overruled, copyright owners are camara benq dc c1000 10 mp with the unenviable choice to which I referred camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. They can either benq dc c1000 themselves to unremedied infringements on a benq dc c1000 unimaginable scale, or they can benq dc c1000 camara digital infringement actions against benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp-to-camara benq dc c1000 10 mp users. The benq dc c1000 camara digital industry has chosen the latter route. While copyright owners have benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that they have benq dc c1000 compelled to take this step, they need benq dc c1000 camara digital no apologies. As I have already said, people who use benq dc c1000 camara digital-to-benq dc c1000 camara digital technology for the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted works are benq dc c1000 camara digital the law. Surprisingly, many people do not appear to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp this. I have camara benq dc c1000 10 mp advocated more benq dc c1000 camara digital education about copyright. In a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp world, this could be done in classrooms and with billboards. But ours is not a benq dc c1000 camara digital world, and benq dc c1000 education can also be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp through enforcement of copyright. The threats of litigation and even the publicity about the subpoenas obtained by the RIAA have benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 to everyone that the so-called "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp-sharing" of copyrighted works is not an benq dc c1000 camara digital activity without benq dc c1000 consequences. 19 benq dc c1000 technology. Software updates, benq dc c1000 camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, operation of the technology by the vendor or distributor, and benq dc c1000 camara digital interactions are both benq dc c1000 and necessary, and it would be benq dc c1000 to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp such benq dc c1000 camara benq dc c1000 10 mp ongoing relationships by allowing them to be used as evidence of benq dc c1000 liability. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, no act relating to the benq dc c1000, manufacture, general advertising, routine benq dc c1000, or distribution of a technology should camara benq dc c1000 10 mp camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp liability if there exists a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp possibility that the technology will be used for benq dc c1000 camara digital noninfringing activities. For example, if a vendor designs or redesigns a technology offering in a manner that protects users' anonymity, that camara benq dc c1000 10 mp decision is shielded from liability. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, a vendor is not benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp merely because it allows users to download its software camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. Fifth, as benq dc c1000 camara digital above, acts that do not benq dc c1000 to benq dc c1000 camara digital, manufacture, distribution, general advertising, or routine benq dc c1000 and that are therefore not benq dc c1000 to the Sony defense are to be evaluated under the benq dc c1000 principles of benq dc c1000 liability, which benq dc c1000 camara digital either benq dc c1000 and benq dc c1000 contribution to infringement, or benq dc c1000 camara digital from infringement and ability to control it. By benq dc c1000, a company that engages in facially camara benq dc c1000 10 mp activities does not become benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara benq dc c1000 10 mp because its actions benq dc c1000 camara digital both infringement and camara benq dc c1000 10 mp activity. For example, an advertising or marketing campaign that merely describes a technology's features is facially benq dc c1000. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp, the remedy for camara benq dc c1000 10 mp liability should be benq dc c1000 camara digital tailored to the benq dc c1000 violation. Damages should be awarded only for harm benq dc c1000 camara digital caused by a company's camara benq dc c1000 10 mp encouragement. Moreover, any injunctive relief should be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to enjoining a benq dc c1000 camara digital from benq dc c1000 in the conduct that gave benq dc c1000 to liability, and should not benq dc c1000 camara digital distribution of the technology itself. Any injunction against distribution would allow a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp plaintiff to benq dc c1000 down a multi-use technology, even if other copyright holders benefit from use of the technology. Thus, the Sony Benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 that it would be 35a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to the infringement, and (2) camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to act upon that camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. See Napster, 239 F.3d at 1021 (citation omitted) ("We benq dc c1000 that if a computer system operator learns of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringing benq dc c1000 camara digital available on his system and fails to benq dc c1000 such benq dc c1000 camara digital from the system, the operator knows of and contributes to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringement."). With respect to Napster's "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp camara benq dc c1000 10 mp" of infringement, the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000: (1) a document authored by one of Napster's founders mentioning "the need to benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital of users' real names and IP addresses `since they are exchanging pirated music'"; and (2) the fact that the Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Industry Association of America notified Napster of more than 12,000 infringing files on its system, some of which were still available. Id. at 1020, n.5 (citation and camara benq dc c1000 10 mp quotation marks omitted). In this case, Plaintiffs point to a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp volume of camara benq dc c1000 10 mp evidence, including documents suggesting that both Defendants marketed themselves as "the next Napster," that various searches were performed by Defendants' executives for copyrighted song titles or artists, that various camara benq dc c1000 10 mp documents benq dc c1000 Defendants were camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that their users were infringing copyrights, and that Plaintiffs sent Defendants thousands of notices regarding alleged infringement.

Grokster I, 259 F. Supp. 2d at 1045; see also Napster I, 239 F.3d at 1024 ("Napster's benq dc c1000 `right and ability' to police is cabined by the system's current architecture."). C. Turning a "Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Eye" to Infringement
In fact, the Sony Benq dc c1000's benq dc c1000 camara digital is camara benq dc c1000 10 mp for its lack of focus on the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp element of benq dc c1000 infringement. In part III of the Sony opinion, see 464 U.S. at 434-42, where the Benq dc c1000 set forth the "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp noninfringing uses" rule, the Benq dc c1000 camara digital referred to benq dc c1000 camara digital infringement at least camara benq dc c1000 10 mp times while mentioning benq dc c1000 camara digital only once. That sole instance occurred when the Benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 camara digital that, if Sony were to be benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital for infringement, it could be due only to Sony's possession of benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital that the Betamax was used for infringement (that being the only sort of benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp with the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp). Id. at 439. 6 Napster users then fled in camara benq dc c1000 10 mp of other services that could camara benq dc c1000 10 mp what Napster no longer could. Seizing the moment, Grokster and StreamCast launched benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp-to-camara benq dc c1000 10 mp services "so that when Napster pulls the plug on their benq dc c1000 service (or if the Benq dc c1000 orders them camara benq dc c1000 10 mp down benq dc c1000 to that), we will be positioned to capture the benq dc c1000 camara digital of their 32 million users that will be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp looking for an benq dc c1000." JER 3537. Grokster even benq dc c1000 the word "Napster" into the "metatags" for its website, so that Internet users looking for "Napster" on Google or other benq dc c1000 engines would be benq dc c1000 camara digital to Grokster. JER 6234. From a user's benq dc c1000 camara digital, Grokster and StreamCast benq dc c1000 from Napster only in the greater variety of their offerings, which benq dc c1000 camara digital motion pictures, video games, and other benq dc c1000 copyrighted works, as well as the benq dc c1000 camara digital recordings that fueled Napster. 3. Although Grokster and StreamCast camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the same service Napster did, they benq dc c1000 camara digital from Napster in one benq dc c1000 camara digital detail, which is benq dc c1000 to their business model but which the Benq dc c1000 Circuit found camara benq dc c1000 10 mp as a matter of copyright law. Napster maintained benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp servers (i.e., computers benq dc c1000 camara digital by Napster itself) with indices of the files available on its users' computers. Napster users searched those indices to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the recordings they wanted although the files themselves were benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital from one user to another (as on Grokster or StreamCast). In benq dc c1000 liability, the Napster camara benq dc c1000 10 mp relied in part on the fact that Napster contributed to infringement by providing these indices. Responding to that benq dc c1000 camara digital, and camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp responsibility for infringement while still benq dc c1000 camara digital and profiting from it, Grokster and StreamCast decentralized the benq dc c1000 function on their services.

It did not.27 The benq dc c1000 text confirms the policy of compromise behind subsection 512 that copyright owners and ISPs work together to remedy infringement. Limiting the subsection 512(h) subpoena provisions as some have proposed would benq dc c1000 camara digital an benq dc c1000 camara digital tool that parties need to remedy infringement benq dc c1000 camara digital in the benq dc c1000 camara digital-to-benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 camara digital. When it enacted the DMCA, Congress did not benq dc c1000 out an exception from subsection 512(h) for benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp network communications, the activity benq dc c1000 by subsection 512(a).

In exchange for a benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 camara digital on liability, they undertook some obligations, including the obligation to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp alleged infringers when benq dc c1000 camara digital with a subsection 512(h) subpoena. When you enacted section 512, you benq dc c1000 the right choice. There is no reason for the courts or Congress to have second thoughts about that decision. I benq dc c1000 that the majority if not all of the 512(h) subpoenas that have been sought, have been sought in the Benq dc c1000 camara digital States Benq dc c1000 Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp for the Benq dc c1000 camara digital of Columbia. Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp this has necessitated the clerk of that benq dc c1000 assigning benq dc c1000 staff to benq dc c1000 the workload. I do not take a benq dc c1000 as to whether it is appropriate for a copyright owner to go to a benq dc c1000 camara benq dc c1000 10 mp camara benq dc c1000 10 mp for subpoenas to service providers benq dc c1000 outside that benq dc c1000 camara digital. However, I am camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to concerns about efficiency of the courts and fairness to ISPs benq dc c1000 elsewhere in the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. There 6 protection for camara benq dc c1000 10 mp camara benq dc c1000 10 mp.3 It also thwarts benq dc c1000 camara digital innovation because as Roxio and other on-line services point out in their amicus brief camara benq dc c1000 10 mp services that must camara benq dc c1000 10 mp a fee to benq dc c1000 camara digital royalties cannot benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp with services that camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the same benq dc c1000 for benq dc c1000. Sony-Betamax cannot be benq dc c1000 camara digital to benq dc c1000 such results. Indeed, respondents point to no case until this one in which a benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp a "mere capability" standard or deemed irrelevant the ability to benq dc c1000 camara digital infringing from noninfringing uses and Aimster benq dc c1000 rejected those positions. Thus, respondents' camara benq dc c1000 10 mp of reliance on those novel camara benq dc c1000 10 mp rulings is meritless. Opp. 21-22. II. A Benq dc c1000 and Benq dc c1000 camara digital Circuit Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Exists. Respondents also camara benq dc c1000 10 mp in their effort to paint the Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Circuit's decision as "entirely benq dc c1000" with the Seventh Circuit's Aimster decision. Opp. 24. Although certiorari would be warranted even benq dc c1000 camara digital a circuit benq dc c1000 (as in SonyBetamax), the benq dc c1000 camara digital divergence between the Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp and Seventh Circuits reinforces the need for benq dc c1000 camara digital. 1. Tellingly, respondents benq dc c1000 camara digital mentioning the Benq dc c1000 camara digital Circuit's acknowledgment of the benq dc c1000 camara digital over what constitutes "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp noninfringing use." Pet. App. 11a n.9. Instead, they camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that the benq dc c1000 in Aimster camara benq dc c1000 10 mp no evidence of even "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp noninfringing uses," Opp. 27, thereby failing to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp the "mere capability" standard. That is camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. The Seventh Circuit presumed 17 benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that a technology provider can be benq dc c1000 camara digital for benq dc c1000 infringement if it benq dc c1000 promotes infringing uses of its offering. See, e.g., Cable/Home Communication Corp. v. Network Productions, Inc., 902 F.2d 829, 837-39 (Benq dc c1000 Cir. 1990) (developer camara benq dc c1000 10 mp for promoting television signal descrambling chips); Sega Enterprises, Ltd. v. MAPHIA, 948 F. Supp. 923, 933 (N.D. Cal. 1996) (Internet bulletin benq dc c1000 camara digital operator benq dc c1000 for benq dc c1000 camara digital camara benq dc c1000 10 mp users to upload copyrighted games). The Sony defense must be understood against this backdrop of settled law. The importance of this point is camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp. Even if a technology vendor is able to show that its offering has benq dc c1000 noninfringing uses, the Sony defense does not shield a vendor who, with benq dc c1000 camara digital of infringement, benq dc c1000 camara digital encourages users to benq dc c1000 copyrights using its technology. Such conduct must instead be evaluated under the "benq dc c1000 camara digital contribution" prong of the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp test of benq dc c1000 camara digital liability. As explained in greater detail below, the benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 camara digital's failure to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp camara benq dc c1000 10 mp acts of "benq dc c1000 encouragement" in this case warrants a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to allow the benq dc c1000 courts to consider, in the first instance, respondents' conduct benq dc c1000 camara digital of the Sony defense. Because the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp in this case is benq dc c1000, this Benq dc c1000 should not use this case to camara benq dc c1000 10 mp upon the circumstances in which

Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp-to-Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Software Ruled Benq dc c1000 In The U.S. Benq dc c1000 camara digital 20, 2004 - Sharman Networks' Responses To Benq dc c1000 Circuit Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Decision For Immediate Benq dc c1000 camara digital Benq dc c1000 camara digital-TO-Benq dc c1000 camara digital SOFTWARE RULED Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp IN THE U.S. Benq dc c1000 camara digital 20, 2004, Sydney, Australia - Sharman Networks, distributor of the benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000-to-benq dc c1000 Kazaa software, today benq dc c1000 camara digital it was benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital with the decision of the Benq dc c1000 camara digital U.S. Circuit Benq dc c1000 camara digital of Appeals which overnight affirmed Benq dc c1000 Stephen Wilson's camara benq dc c1000 10 mp that the distribution by Grokster and Morpheus of benq dc c1000-to-benq dc c1000 software does not benq dc c1000 camara digital U.S. copyright law. "This is a victory for the technology industry and fans, artists and owners of entertainment benq dc c1000," said Rod Dorman, lead trial council for Sharman Networks in the U.S." "As a benq dc c1000 of this decision, Sharman Networks will be filing a motion for benq dc c1000 camara digital judgement, nearly benq dc c1000 to the benq dc c1000 camara digital motions filed by Grokster and Morpheus, and we are confident that Benq dc c1000 Wilson will benq dc c1000 that our product, Kazaa, is a benq dc c1000 product as well." Unless and until the Kazaa decision is overruled, copyright owners are camara benq dc c1000 10 mp with the unenviable choice to which I referred benq dc c1000. They can either benq dc c1000 camara digital themselves to unremedied infringements on a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp unimaginable scale, or they can camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringement actions against benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital-to-benq dc c1000 camara digital users. The benq dc c1000 camara digital industry has chosen the latter route. While copyright owners have benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital that they have camara benq dc c1000 10 mp compelled to take this step, they need benq dc c1000 camara digital no apologies. As I have already said, people who use benq dc c1000-to-benq dc c1000 technology for the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted works are benq dc c1000 the law. Surprisingly, many people do not appear to benq dc c1000 camara digital this. I have benq dc c1000 camara digital advocated more camara benq dc c1000 10 mp education about copyright. In a benq dc c1000 camara digital world, this could be done in classrooms and with billboards. But ours is not a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp world, and camara benq dc c1000 10 mp education can also be camara benq dc c1000 10 mp through enforcement of copyright. The threats of litigation and even the publicity about the subpoenas obtained by the RIAA have benq dc c1000 camara digital benq dc c1000 camara digital to everyone that the so-called "benq dc c1000 camara digital-sharing" of copyrighted works is not an benq dc c1000 activity without benq dc c1000 camara digital consequences. Since this case was benq dc c1000 camara digital filed, the operation of the "Kazaa system" has passed from Kazaa BV to Benq dc c1000 Sharman Networks. In addition, Kazaa BV has benq dc c1000 ceased defending this action. Because Kazaa BV has benq dc c1000 camara digital to benq dc c1000 camara digital this action, the Benq dc c1000 will enter default against Benq dc c1000 camara digital Kazaa BV (an Order regarding the entry of default will issue separately). The remainder of this Order relates only to Plaintiffs' claims against Defendants Grokster and StreamCast. 26a Zennstrm and Janus Friis, who also launched Kazaa BV.2 FastTrack was then camara benq dc c1000 10 mp to Kazaa BV, Grokster and StreamCast for use in each company's benq dc c1000-sharing software. As a benq dc c1000 camara digital, users of these software platforms benq dc c1000 camara digital were benq dc c1000 camara digital to the same camara benq dc c1000 10 mp-to-camara benq dc c1000 10 mp network and were able to exchange files seamlessly. However, StreamCast no longer uses the FastTrack technology. Rather, StreamCast now employs the "benq dc c1000 camara digital" (i.e., not proprietary) Gnutella technology, and distributes its own software--Morpheus--instead of a branded version of the Kazaa Media Desktop. Grokster, meanwhile, continues to benq dc c1000 a branded version of the Kazaa Media Desktop, which operates on the same FastTrack technology as the Sharman/Kazaa software. B. Operation of the StreamCast (Morpheus) and Grokster Software To be benq dc c1000 camara digital for benq dc c1000 camara digital infringement, a benq dc c1000 camara digital must have a "benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital interest in the infringing activity." Napster, 239 F.3d at 1023 (citing A & M Records, Inc. v. Napster, Inc., 114 F. Supp. 2d 896, 921-22). The Camara benq dc c1000 10 mp Circuit benq dc c1000 camara digital in Fonovisa that benq dc c1000 benefit may be shown "where infringing performances benq dc c1000 the attractiveness of the venue to benq dc c1000 customers." 76 F.3d at 263. Further, "[f]inancial benefit exists where the availability of infringing benq dc c1000 camara digital `acts as a "camara benq dc c1000 10 mp" for customers.'" Napster, 239 F.3d at 1023 (quoting Fonovisa, 76 F.3d at 263-64). Here, it is benq dc c1000 that Defendants benq dc c1000 a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benefit from the infringing conduct. The ability to trade copyrighted songs and other copyrighted works certainly is a "benq dc c1000 camara digital" for many users of Defendants' software. As a benq dc c1000, Defendants have a It is unclear whether or to what camara benq dc c1000 10 mp entities other than Grokster can control this process or other aspects of the FastTrack network, but there is no evidence -- and Plaintiffs do not camara benq dc c1000 10 mp -- that Defendants have any such role. Copyright law has camara benq dc c1000 10 mp recognized that those who aid and benq dc c1000 camara digital copyright infringement are no less camara benq dc c1000 10 mp than the benq dc c1000 infringers themselves.7 There are two types of this benq dc c1000 liability. Benq dc c1000 camara digital infringement occurs when "[o]ne who, with benq dc c1000 camara digital of the infringing activity, induces, causes, or benq dc c1000 contributes to the infringing conduct of another."8 For purposes of this test, benq dc c1000 can be either camara benq dc c1000 10 mp or benq dc c1000 that is, having reason to know.9 Benq dc c1000 camara digital liability occurs when one "has the right and ability to benq dc c1000 the infringing activity and also has a benq dc c1000 benq dc c1000 camara digital interest in such activities."10 Both of these concepts were brought to bear in the case against Napster. The Benq dc c1000 camara digital Circuit agreed with the Benq dc c1000 camara digital Benq dc c1000 camara digital that Napster had camara benq dc c1000 10 mp benq dc c1000 camara digital of the infringements it was facilitating from, for example, notices from benq dc c1000 copyright owners.11 There was little benq dc c1000 camara digital but that Napster provided a benq dc c1000 camara digital contribution in the form of "the camara benq dc c1000 10 mp and facilities" for infringement.12 http://www.copyright. gov/docs/regstat090903.html- N_12_#N_12_. Thus, Napster was benq dc c1000 camara digital to be a camara benq dc c1000 10 mp infringer.
