P2P Wins Court Battle in France
P2P Wins Court Battle in France
03/14/2005 04:34 PMI take back some of things I had thought about our friends across the
Atlantic. A French Appeal Court ruled that a countryman who downloaded
500 movies via P2P was within his rights because he used them for
private viewing, not distributing or selling them to the public. He
also paid tax on the blank media he recorded it on. No harm, no foul
said the courts. Now that is a ruling that makes sense, common sense.
Viva Le France! If you can read French, you can find the details
on this website.

Musicologist wins copyright battle over
300-year-old works
07/17/2004 11:19 AMBoingBoing reader
John says:
Dr. Sawkins, a musicologist, has won a copyright battle in
Britain over a 300 year old piece of music, "Music for the Sun King"
by Michel-Richard de Lalande. I understand that particular editions
of literature, for example, are often copyrighted: the layout, the
footnotes, etc, are all original. But the actual editorial choices-
what to include, how to conflate contradictory texts- I had assumed
were not copyrightable. By the logic of this argument, a good
editorial choice made in one edition of a piece of music can be seen
as infringing on the same choice made in another edition.

German Walkman Inventor Wins Battle
Against Sony, Fixes Gaze on Apple
German Walkman Inventor Wins Battle
Against Sony, Fixes Gaze on Apple
06/07/2004 12:09 PM
German inventor
Andreas Pavel has just settled a 20 year court battle with Sony over
the origins of the Walkman, a device Pavel claimed to have patented in
1977. While Sony has spent the better part of two decades trying to
ignore his claims of invention (despite the fact they paid him royalty
fees for the first few years of the device's life), Pavel's near
bankruptcy after a 3.7 million dollar court battle was finally
rewarded by a confidential agreement in which Pavel was reportedly
paid off to the tune of several million euros. Pavel, cock of the
walk, is now planning to take a swipe at Apple, whose iPod has become
the Walkman of this generation. Even better, Pavel has another patent
in the wings: a 1989 US filing for a technology that combines the
features of a portable audio player and a mobile phone. That patent
will be decided on 'soon.'
