Grokster File-Sharing Case Hits The
Supreme Court 03/31/2005 12:35 PM
The Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday from representatives of major film studios and the recording industry who are seeking to shut down peer-to-peer services they say are costing them billions of dollars. One of the questions the court kept coming back to was this: What's more important — preventing potential copyright violations or allowing the market to come up with innovative new products?

The case began when MGM and several record labels filed suit against StreamCast Networks and file-sharing network Grokster, arguing that they were intentionally created to allow people to illegally trade copyrighted material. That case was thrown out by a circuit court in August, paving the way for it to be argued in front of the Supreme Court. "The scale of the whole thing is mind-boggling," argued recording industry lawyer Donald Verrilli. "They intentionally built a network of infringing users."

Dems on the Supreme Court

Dems on the Supreme Court 01/11/2004 07:56 AM
So an underplayed aspect of this campaign has been how the Democratic candidates would differently select the Supreme Court. On NPR's debate , Senator Lieberman pointed to Justice Souter as a model. Congressman Kucinich plugged Justice Ginsburg. I've gotten a couple pings asking what the right answer is. Hard question for me. Of course neither Ginsburg nor Souter were on the correct side (or the right side) of Eldred, but I certainly think Justice Souter is a model justice -- serious, hard working, unburdened by ideology, prepared. I never quite get the principle that guides Justice Ginsburg's choice between activism and not, or principle and not, so I'm waiting to see the genius in that selection by President Clinton. Justice Breyer of course wrote a brilliant dissent in Eldred -- brilliant, though not effective. He was proud of the decision's embrace of economics as the standard by which the Sonny Bono Act was judged. But while I'm a fan of the result, I've been too deeply affected (scarred?) by the originalism/textaulism/fidelity theories of Scalia to be enamored of that method. In my view, perhaps the best sitting justice is a Republican appointee -- Stevens. And if candidates are looking for what makes the best the best, then it is certainly his judges' judge-like character. There's no simple line that predicts Justice Stevens' result -- certainly not a political line. And if there is any quality this Court needs, it is that -- following a line that does not seem a political line. The most impressive judges not sitting on the Supreme Court are also, um, Republicans. (What party am I again?) Judge Kozin ski is a great judge -- too young when appointed, but someone who has matured brilliantly in the job. And while his views about how to the interpret the constitution make me cringe, history will record the greatest judge of our time as Judge Posner. But I doubt that this is the time that a President from either party will pick greatness as the reason to select a Justice.
