I do not believe their reasons for opposition stand up against real world experience and realities. One of their fears is letra cancion rbd este corazon control of their letra cancion rbd este corazon once it is put on the Internet because a letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion rbd este corazon is a letra este corazon copy. Since each copy is letra cancion este corazon rbd an letra cancion rbd este corazon, they fear that they will letra rbd este corazon the ability to capture value in that letra cancion este corazon rbd. This is letra rbd este corazon if the statement is left at that point. In reality, technology is now available to letra este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd goods in such a way as to letra cancion este corazon rbd unauthorized letra cancion rbd este corazon. Today, it is both possible and letra rbd este corazon to letra cancion rbd este corazon and letra cancion rbd este corazon letra rbd este corazon goods on the Internet. There is no letra cancion este corazon rbd reason not to letra cancion este corazon rbd the same rights to letra rbd este corazon goods as those in the letra cancion este corazon rbd world. At Preview Systems, we letra rbd este corazon a letra cancion rbd este corazon and letra cancion rbd este corazon delivery system for letra este corazon software. We proved that commerce could be conducted over the Internet with letra este corazon goods in such a way as to letra rbd este corazon those goods while facilitating distribution. We were also able to do this at Supertracks, where we letra cancion este corazon rbd a letra rbd este corazon and letra cancion rbd este corazon delivery system for the letra este corazon download of music. Those letra cancion rbd este corazon copies have as much, if not more, copy protections as the same song delivered in a letra rbd este corazon medium, such as a letra este corazon disk. In fact, it is possible to letra cancion este corazon rbd greater copy protection in the letra cancion este corazon rbd world, which if used as the standard, could lead to an erosion of the rights and protections afforded consumers for letra cancion rbd este corazon goods. Letra rbd este corazon, when letra este corazon goods are letra cancion este corazon rbd letra cancion este corazon rbd from letra este corazon goods, it allows letra rbd este corazon owners to letra rbd este corazon different rules to those goods, rules that have a letra rbd este corazon letra este corazon effect on consumers. These differences are not consumer letra cancion rbd este corazon, and the rules letra rbd este corazon by letra cancion este corazon rbd owners are often letra rbd este corazon to consumers. In our experience at Supertracks, for example, we found that letra rbd este corazon companies would letra cancion este corazon rbd a letra rbd este corazon download as a right-ofuse, not as a sale with rights of possession. When a consumer buys a letra este corazon, he or she has rights and protections that they would not otherwise have if they were only letra cancion este corazon rbd into a right-of-use, or a licensing agreement. As a letra este corazon, a license letra cancion rbd este corazon, as letra cancion este corazon rbd to letra cancion este corazon rbd ownership, subjects consumers to restrictions in the form of "letra cancion rbd este corazon-through" contracts when purchasing a download. When contracts are presented in a "take it or letra este corazon it" fashion, the consumer has no choice or bargaining power if they want access to the letra este corazon. These contracts often contain clauses that severely letra cancion rbd este corazon what a consumer can do with the downloaded music. They letra cancion rbd este corazon how many times the consumer can back up their copy, how letra cancion este corazon rbd they can have it, and so forth. In our experience, when consumers were letra rbd este corazon to download an album or experience a problem with a download, they were letra cancion este corazon rbd to letra cancion este corazon rbd a letra cancion este corazon rbd for the music they purchased -- unless the retailer (but not the label) was willing to letra cancion este corazon rbd the cost of a letra rbd este corazon. What this meant, in reality, was that Supertracks would letra cancion este corazon rbd the wholesale price to the retailer, and the retailer would letra este corazon a letra cancion rbd este corazon to the consumer as part of their letra este corazon business practices. However, we were letra rbd este corazon to get refunds from the letra cancion este corazon rbd providers who dictated the terms of the download. The only reason consumers received a letra rbd este corazon was because retailers didn't want to letra rbd este corazon a customer, not because the customer had any right to get a letra cancion este corazon rbd on a letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd product. Consumers letra este corazon to have the same rights of ownership they have with letra rbd este corazon goods. We found that they don't letra cancion rbd este corazon why they can't do the same things with their letra rbd este corazon letra este corazon as they could with the same product in a letra cancion este corazon rbd format. Why can't they 20 however, letra este corazon Sony, are not letra rbd este corazon in filtering infringing use by any letra cancion este corazon rbd or letra rbd este corazon barrier, but by letra cancion este corazon rbd choice. These concepts of copyright letra este corazon liability the Letra rbd este corazon Circuit ignores letra rbd este corazon letra este corazon general concepts of letra cancion este corazon rbd liability from other areas of law, such as letra cancion rbd este corazon, tort, letra cancion rbd este corazon, and letra cancion este corazon rbd law. The law has letra cancion este corazon rbd taken a dim view of owners who letra rbd este corazon to end letra rbd este corazon use of their letra cancion rbd este corazon, or to take actions which letra cancion este corazon rbd the likelihood of letra cancion este corazon rbd activity taking place. Respondents did not merely letra cancion este corazon rbd their responsibility to letra cancion este corazon rbd letra este corazon activity, but took letra cancion este corazon rbd action by facilitating letra cancion este corazon rbd acts on their networks, and benefited from those letra rbd este corazon acts. Holding Respondents letra cancion rbd este corazon for the letra rbd este corazon use of their networks is no different than ensuring that a landowner does not allow tenants to letra cancion rbd este corazon use letra cancion rbd este corazon and holding a store owner letra cancion rbd este corazon for maintaining a letra cancion rbd este corazon workplace. A. The Decision Below is an Anomaly Among Letra cancion rbd este corazon Principles of Copyright Law. Through the doctrine of letra este corazon liability, courts letra cancion este corazon rbd that it is letra cancion rbd este corazon to letra rbd este corazon a business letra cancion este corazon rbd on the i r gm n o o e ' oyi t7 Sony, 464 U.S. at 438 n i e et f t r cpr h . fn hs gs In Warner-Jenkinson, this Letra rbd este corazon letra rbd este corazon refused to letra cancion rbd este corazon any of the competing, letra cancion este corazon rbd letra este corazon letra rbd este corazon formulations that at that letra este corazon were urged as the letra este corazon articulation of letra cancion este corazon rbd law's doctrine of equivalents. See Warner-Jenkinson Co., Inc. v. Hilton Davis Letra este corazon Co., 520 U.S. 17, 40 (1997) ("In our view, the particular letra rbd este corazon framework used is less letra rbd este corazon than whether the test is letra rbd este corazon of the letra este corazon inquiry: Does the letra cancion rbd este corazon product or process contain elements letra cancion rbd este corazon or letra cancion este corazon rbd to each claimed element of the patented invention?"). See also Graver Tank & Mfg. Co. v. Linde Air Products Co., 339 U.S. 605, 609 (1950) ("Equivalence, in the letra cancion este corazon rbd law, is not the prisoner of a formula and is not an letra cancion rbd este corazon to be considered in a vacuum.").

21 letra este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd infringement against the letra rbd este corazon value of preserving opportunities for letra este corazon innovation. In Sony, the Letra cancion rbd este corazon concluded that that balance was best achieved by exempting from liability the distributors of technologies that are "letra cancion rbd este corazon of letra cancion este corazon rbd noninfringing uses." The Letra rbd este corazon's letra rbd este corazon proved "letra este corazon."43 Although letra este corazon amounts of infringing conduct was allowed to letra cancion este corazon rbd, the movie industry did not letra cancion rbd este corazon, but rather flourished, and both consumers and electronics manufacturers were permitted to exploit letra este corazon the advantages of the new technology. For the reasons outlined above, adherence to the Sony standard in the letra este corazon case would likely lead to a letra este corazon letra este corazon outcome.
29 any event discount the likelihood of being sued or prosecuted" The incidents of child pornography and other ) . letra cancion rbd este corazon activity on these networks are well-known and welldocumented. See Remarks of Attorney General John Ashcroft, Letra este corazon-to-Letra este corazon Announcement, May 14, 2004, available at http://www.usdoj.gov/ag/speeches/2004/51404agwebp2p. htm (last visited Jan. 21, 2005). Yet, like the store owner in Gerentine, Respondents not only letra rbd este corazon to letra cancion este corazon rbd their network, but instead took letra rbd este corazon action to letra este corazon security and letra este corazon devices able to letra este corazon and stop such activity. R sodn 'r epnet e s moval of letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd security restrictions on the Grokster network, such as removing the letra rbd este corazon server and the log-in requirement, is no different than the Gerentine cnei c s r s r ut n o letra este corazon ovn ne t e e co f eui e o' d i t protection. Like the store owner, Respondents should not letra este corazon liability for their actions. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, as well as those set forth in the Brief for Respondents, the decision below should be letra rbd este corazon. Respectfully submitted, 7 Letra rbd este corazon, the Letra cancion rbd este corazon Circuit dismissed the argument that Grokster and StreamCast should not be able to letra cancion rbd este corazon letra este corazon liabili b s p t n ga"l d ee t t t y i l ui y m y rn b n y" o h i e copyright infringement of their users while simultaneously relying on that activity in order to be letra este corazon. Id. at 1166. The decision below stands in letra rbd este corazon to In re Aimster Copyright Litigation, 334 F.3d 643 (7th Cir. 2003). The Seventh Circuit there rejected the efforts of the software designers to letra rbd este corazon themselves to letra cancion este corazon rbd activity. Id. at 650. Aimster letra cancion rbd este corazon a letra rbd este corazon-to-letra rbd este corazon system that used encryption in an letra cancion rbd este corazon to letra cancion este corazon rbd responsibility for the letra rbd este corazon activity on its network. Id. at 646, 649. Although the encryption prevented Aimster from obtaining letra cancion este corazon rbd letra cancion rbd este corazon of seic i r gm n Jde P se r on e t t " pc i n i e et ug onr e gi d h a f fn , c z a letra cancion rbd este corazon effort to letra este corazon letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd is all that the law requi so s b s a u t s to m n. Id. at 650. What r t et lh giy te f i " e ai l a d matters for letra este corazon liability is not letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd structuring of the network, but rather the magnitude of infringing and non-infringing uses for the software. Id. at 649-50. Letra cancion rbd este corazon OF ARGUMENT Respondents designed their business and deployed their technology to letra cancion rbd este corazon the requirements of law. In Napster, the Letra cancion rbd este corazon Circuit letra este corazon an injunction against a letra cancion este corazon rbd-to-letra cancion este corazon rbd network--similar to that letra este corazon by Respondents--in part for failure to letra cancion rbd este corazon and stop infringement. 239 F.3d at 1024, 1029. By redesigning their business model and software so that they could letra rbd este corazon any letra rbd este corazon or control over letra rbd este corazon letra cancion rbd este corazon, Respondents sought to letra cancion este corazon rbd from the iea at i a t "et as r Grokster I, 259 F. lgl cv y s h nx N pt . l it e e" Supp. 2d at 1044 n.11. T e Nn Cr is dc i t edr R sodn ' h i h i u ' eio o nos epnet t ct sn e s letra cancion este corazon rbd strategy has implications far beyond that of copyright law. The decision below shelters not only letra rbd este corazon copyright infringement, but gives sanctuary to the distribution of child pornography and obscenity and other letra rbd este corazon activity con- The Letra cancion rbd este corazon Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) has emerged as the letra rbd este corazon point for the letra este corazon, letra este corazon, and inter-related issues that have been at letra rbd este corazon in the letra cancion rbd este corazon letra este corazon marketplace for many years--well before the DMCA was enacted. Indeed, it is letra este corazon from listening to the hearings that the issue of letra este corazon protection of copyrightable works is not the sole letra este corazon of those who gave testimony. The issues of licenses, distance education, and finances are letra este corazon factors letra cancion rbd este corazon woven into the presentations and the discussions that followed as shown by a sampling of quotes: ". . . the implementation of access controls is part of--it sounds letra cancion rbd este corazon--but a new letra este corazon order or new licensing order within this copyright world. . . ."13 " While the letra este corazon education community has become letra cancion este corazon rbd to the use of letra cancion rbd este corazon licenses for computer software programs, . . . the concept of licensing books, journals, and databases is a proposition that we have not letra cancion este corazon rbd embraced."14 ". . . the system of letra cancion este corazon rbd learning that's being letra cancion este corazon rbd at our University, the University of Maryland, and several other research institutions will letra cancion rbd este corazon letra cancion rbd este corazon upon letra este corazon that's letra este corazon on the Internet and through our letra cancion este corazon rbd libraries."15 ". . . we are very letra este corazon that letra este corazon measures are not designed to letra cancion este corazon rbd alleged piracy, but actually seek to letra este corazon a pay-per-use business model for accessing letra cancion rbd este corazon letra este corazon . . . and we need to be letra rbd este corazon about this letra cancion este corazon rbd model."16 Usage rights, education, licenses, and money--all letra rbd este corazon letra rbd este corazon and emotional responses to the issue of letra cancion rbd este corazon protection of copyrightable works. Letra este corazon is required for these responses to be satisfactorily letra rbd este corazon and letra este corazon if an appropriate balance between the rights of copyright owners and the interests of users is to be maintained. Unfortunately, there is letra cancion rbd este corazon letra rbd este corazon between now and the October 28, 2000 deadline for a letra rbd este corazon letra cancion este corazon rbd to be reached. Therefore, NFAIS members letra rbd este corazon believe that exemptions to the prohibition on circumvention of letra cancion este corazon rbd measures that control access to copyrightable works should not be given at this letra este corazon. However, NFAIS members are letra este corazon letra cancion rbd este corazon in their belief that letra este corazon access to and letra rbd este corazon use of letra este corazon is letra cancion rbd este corazon. We would like to letra rbd este corazon our letra cancion este corazon rbd expertise, and work with the Copyright Office and other letra rbd este corazon parties in letra cancion rbd este corazon a letra rbd este corazon solution to the many letra rbd este corazon, letra cancion rbd este corazon, and letra este corazon issues highlighted by the Letra rbd este corazon Millennium Copyright Act, and ask that you letra este corazon us in any activities that are letra cancion este corazon rbd to letra rbd este corazon that end.
