WORDS:
3200
DATE:

PRICE:
39.99 GBP

This paper consists of an essay plan and an essay discussing legal developments and how ‘copyright piracy’ can be related to copyright law. The paper focuses on file sharing and its legalities, comparing the concept of ownership to individuals and to modern international law. Secondary literature is used to explore this topic by identifying the history of copyright law, the International Copyright Treaty in relation to copyright owners, moral rights of artists, freedom of information and flexible approach and the inconsistencies between economic and normative rights. The actions of Pirate Bay and Drink or Die are used as case studies for internet piracy and the legality of piracy. Protecting Copyright is a large part of this discussion, and they focus on protecting electronic data, stating the importance of this data and private data, which needs to result in strict prosecution. The paper discusses the Computer Misuse Act 1990 (CMA) and the Police and Justice Act 2006 (PJA), as two possible ways protecting copyright can be enforced. The paper discusses copyright law, public domain and file sharing, and how they all affect copyright.

S/L/268. The Napster controversy: is it illegal to share music?

WORDS:
1650
DATE:
2010
PRICE:
19.99 GBP

As one of the forerunners of music file sharing software, Napster was the first company to be challenged by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for violating music copyright laws. Despite citing the Audio Home Recording Act which “granted consumers the right to transfer digital music for personal, noncommercial use” Napster lost their case. Whether copyright laws have, and continue to be, actually broken is debated, as is the claim that such peer-to-peer services contribute to the decline of music sales.
