4 Top Experts Discuss Grokster Decision
|
|
Essentially the Supreme Court has ruled in a unanimous (9-to-0) decision that companies providing P2P software can be held liable for secondary copyright infringement if they are conducting their businesses in such a way so as to induce consumers to infringe copyrights. We suspect that the decision will have far reaching implications but it is unclear just how effective the ruling will be in curbing piracy.
Among the questions that our panel addresses are the following:
What are the full implications?
Will it curtail P2P file sharing?
Will the file sharing companies merely be driven offshore?
Will it inhibit technological innovation?
Will it materially benefit the legitimate online stores?
What about the related Court decision on competitive access coverage?
