The news is replete with lawsuits challenging the application of conventional copyright laws to modern technology. Indeed, in the Information Age, litigation and transactional attorneys in all sectors face copyright issues with increasing frequency. In this course, you will learn how Napster, Mp3.com, and Kazaa fell. You will learn answers to those questions of the ages: Is this thing copyrightable? How will copyright protect me? What are registration and deposit requirements, and who needs 'em? What the heck is a "bundle of rights"? How does one infringe another's copyright, and--just hypothetically, of course--what can they do to me once I have? What is the "fair" in "fair use"? Intellectual Property is not a prerequisite.
