2007 Supplement and Statutory Appendix to Gorman & Ginsburg's Copyright: Cases and Materials, 7th (University Casebook Series)

The 2007 Supplement to the Seventh Edition will feature recent decisions and administrative and legislative developments. Significant caselaw additions include the scope of the Audio Home Recording Act's prohibition on infringement suits, and the compulsory license to make digital audio transmissions of sound recordings, as construed in Atlantic Recording v. XM Satellite Radio (SDNY 2007); the fair use decisions in Blanch v. Koons (2d Cir. 2006) and Clean Flicks of Colo. v. Soderbergh (D. Colo. 2006); and the analysis of Internet service provider safe harbors in Perfect 10 v. CCBill (9th Cir. 2007). The Copyright Office's November 2006 rulemaking on exceptions to anti circumvention protection will also figure prominently, and the Copyright Royalty Board proceeding setting rates for the Section 114(d) compulsory license for digital audio transmission public performances of sound recordings will be noted.
