RIAA's INDUCE Act letter deconstructed
RIAA's INDUCE Act letter deconstructed
07/15/2004 05:31 AMThe RIAA has sent a letter to Congress, calling on it to pass the
iPod-criminalising INDUCE Act. Ernest Miller has deconstructed the
letter line by line, countering its claims.
That taking has consequences, human and creative. [Some of the
consequences are good, some are bad. Separating them, however, is a
pain and may not be possible.] My companies make money almost
exclusively from the sale of our creative product. [And they still
can, they will have to make some adjustments to their business model.]
We don't have a performance right on radio and therefore derive no
income from radio play. [Welcome to the wonderful world of "when
Congress tries to dictate business models." And so, the RIAA proposes
a sequel.] We don't make money from artist tours or merchandise. [And
why is that? Is there a law against it? If so, I would recommend it be
repealed.] We don't make money from endorsements of other products.
[Is someone stopping them from doing that?] We just sell recorded
music. [You're free to structure business however you like.]
We take profits from sales – when we're good and lucky enough to
get them - and plow money back into the search for that next great
talent who will thrill music fans around the globe. [I guess the
industry must have been bad these last few years.] When we think we
have found that talent, we invest huge amounts to sign, nurture,
promote and distribute their creative product. [And the RIAA is the
only way talent can be found and promoted, because?] Our economic
vitality is based on generating hits – finding special talents
that enjoy strong commercial appeal. [And we should care about the
hit-maker mentality, because?]

RIAA defends Induce act and is on the
offensive
07/14/2004 05:17 AMTechdirt has a great article about the ridiculous INDUCE Act that
was penned by Senator Hatch. It seems that the RIAA under a lot of
pressure as a lot of major players are against the ACT have sent all
100 senators a letter telling them how this law will not affect the
Betamax decision.

RIAA Defends INDUCE Act; Explains Why
It's No Betamax
07/14/2004 03:43 AMIt's not surprising that the RIAA would come out in defense of the
INDUCE
Act from Senator Hatch. They practically wrote the bill
themselves. They had hoped to sneak it through without any debate,
but a bunch of tech companies have stood up and pointed out how
ridiculous this is. Meanwhile, plenty of others are showing
what
kinds of technology would be banned by the law. Realizing this
might not sail through Congress as smoothly as they had hoped, the
RIAA has now gone on the offensive. RIAA head Mitch Bainwol has
sent a letter to all 100 Senators defending the
bill, and saying that, contrary to the claims of others, it wouldn't
overturn the famous Betamax decision (which allowed technologies that
could be used for infringement, if they had substantial non-infringing
purposes as well). Bainwol claims that "intentional inducement" is a
much higher standard than was used in the Betamax ruling. However, as
Ernest Miller points out in his
INDUCE
Act rebuttal, the only reason that's a higher standard is because
there was no law against "inducing infringement" when the Betamax
decision went to court.

With Neal Stephenson's permission, this guy has annotated In the
Beginning was the Command line and posted it online for everyone
to see. I think this is a great example of how works can evolve and be
improved upon. Unfortunately, In the Command Line has not
been 'set free', but it's great that the author was able and willing
to give permission for this development.

Induce Act Refuses to Die
Induce Act Refuses to Die
09/14/2004 11:00 AMLast month, insiders in Washington felt the Induce Act, which would
outlaw technology that could contribute to copyright infringement, was
history. According to music activist organization Downhill Battle, a
year-old organization dedicated to bringing balance to a debate often
dominated by the RIAA and large music labels, this is no longer the
case. "We were told by people on (Capital) Hill that it is less likely
that the bill will come to the floor by itself and have a nice debate
and vote," says Nicholas Reville, Downhill Battle Co-Founder. "More
likely the Induce Act is going to be snuck through a back door in
legislative procedure. The only supporters in any industry or interest
group are in Hollywood. From their perspective (the Induce Act) is not
going to happen if it gets full airing."

Senator Orrin Hatch introduced the INDUCE bill earlier
this week with broad, vague limits on who could be sued for copyright
infringement. No longer limited to just companies producing programs
or those hosting programs, this bill intends to criminalize anyone
that aids in copyright infringement. The EFF have
produced a mock
complaint against Apple for the iPod, since it can play illegally
obtained mp3s just as easily as legally purchased ones. Ernest Miller
has
broken
down Hatch's entire "for the children" speech that
introduced the bill, in excruciating detail. Those who own mp3
players, TiVos, and other sorts of disruptive technologies should
watch this one closely, it could get really ugly.

Musicians on the INDUCE act
Musicians on the INDUCE act
08/06/2004 01:14 PMThere's a bill currently being debated in the US Senate, called the
INDUCE act (here's a good background on it), that aims
to criminalize P2P networks, programmers, software compnaies, and
anyone else that can be shown to help "induce copyright
infringement."
There are a lot of problems with the act's broad language, but the
Future of Music Coalition
surveyed musicians to get their opinions on the target of the act, P2P
networks. The final product of the survey is a letter to
the senate committee debating the bill. The key points are
illuminating and worth restating here: artists don't feature in
discussions of the bill (just large music labels and technology
companies), the bill assumes all copyright owners do not want their
works shared on P2P networks (35% of musicians they surveyed saw value
in P2P sharing for them), and the bill doesn't allow market-based
(like licensing) solutions to occur. Former Creative Commons featured
commoner Scott Andrew highlights the survey, the letter, and his
problems with the bill in this
post.

Xeni Jardin:
As my colleague Cory
blogged last week, Tuesday September 14 is "Save Betamax National
Call-in Day."
Why Save Betamax? The short version: We're organizing a call-in day to
Congress on September 14 to oppose new legislation that would
undermine the Betamax decision (INDUCE Act). Here's why: The Betamax
VCR died more than 15 years ago, but the Supreme Court decision that
made the Betamax and all other VCRs legal lived on. In Sony vs.
Universal (known as the Betamax decision) the Court ruled that because
VCRs have legitimate uses, the technology is legal—even if some
people use it to copy movies. Of course, the movie industry was lucky
it lost the case against VCRs, because home video soon became
Hollywood's largest source of revenue. And the freedom to use and
develop new technology that was protected by the Betamax decision set
the stage for the incredible growth in computer technology we've seen
in the last few decades.
