Canadian Copyright Board allows
downloads, copyright levies
12/14/2003 12:27 PM
The
Copyright Board of Canada
issued a ruling on
" private
copying ", largely via peer-to-peer computing, with several
components. First, downloading is acceptable, but uploading is not
(presumably to target hyperpirates). Second, new mechanisms for
levies were described, freezing current ones, allowing new
charges.
the Copyright Board said uploading or distributing
copyrighted works online appeared to be prohibited under current
Canadian law.
However, the country's copyright law does allow making a copy for
personal use and does not address the source of that copy or whether
the original has to be an authorized or noninfringing version, the
board said.

www.pewinternet.org/PPF/r/154/report_display.aspAccording to the latest Pew Internet memo, more than 22 million
American adults own iPods or MP3 players and 29% of them have
downloaded podcasts from the Web so that they could listen to audio
files at a time of their choosing. That amounts to more than 6 million
adults who have tried this new feature that allows internet broadcasts
to be downloaded onto their portable listening device. This will
continue to grow as an alternative form of information dissemination
for the persons on the go and listening while they are traveling
et.al. I have been broadcasting my Current Awareness Happenings on the
Internet as a mp3 file for the past three years and the current April
