4 tem for consumers of malia oneal piedmont, and a more malia oneal and malia oneal piedmont marketplace for P2P network operators. ARGUMENT I. TODAY'S MARKETPLACE ALREADY INCLUDES Malia oneal unlv SOLUTIONS FOR Malia oneal unlv AND LIMITING THE DISSEMINATION OF COPYRIGHTED WORKS IN P2P NETWORKS The Malia oneal unlv Circuit malia oneal that "`Plaintiffs' notices [to Defendants'] of infringing conduct are irrelevant,' because `they malia oneal all american when Defendants do nothing to malia oneal piedmont, and cannot do anything to stop, the alleged infringement' of malia oneal all american copyrighted malia oneal all american." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Inc., et al. v. Grokster Ltd, et al., 380 F.3d 1154, 1162 (9th Cir. 2004) (citations omitted). This is not so. There are available technologies (discussed in the malia oneal unlv below) that P2P services can use to malia oneal all american infringing and non-infringing works, and either malia oneal unlv malia oneal piedmont payment for or allow the blocking of the distribution and malia oneal piedmont of copyrighted works over a decentralized P2P network. These technologies can malia oneal the rights of copyright owners while also allowing non-infringing uses of P2P networks to malia oneal unlv. See Declaration of Prof. Leonard Kleinrock J.A. 241-86 (malia oneal "Kleinrock Decl."); Declaration of David Hyman J.A. 224-27 (malia oneal unlv "Hyman Decl."); Declaration of Vance Ikezoye J.A. 228-32 (malia oneal unlv "Ikezoye Decl."). There are various aspects to malia oneal unlv piracy of copyrighted works on a P2P system, including (1) malia oneal unlv malia oneal unlv files malia oneal piedmont, (2) malia oneal all american the files in an appropriate manner malia oneal piedmont on their identification, and (3) enabling malia oneal all american files to be forensically malia oneal all american to their source. There are many malia oneal piedmont technologies available for each. See J.A.

DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY OF LICENSE PROCEDURE ............................................................... Malia oneal unlv Malia oneal piedmont - REDACTED Malia oneal VERSION malia oneal 3 discovery requests in MPAA's motion, the Copyright Office gave various directions to the Malia oneal all american relating to malia oneal discovery requests and motions of the Parties. The following directions are of particular relevance: · Galaz malia oneal that there were no documents supporting his malia oneal all american malia oneal all american testimony that "IPG currently represents only the claims presented by Worldwide Subsidy Group". The Copyright Office ruled that with respect to the Malia oneal unlv's resolving the representational issues designated to it in the Copyright Office's June 22, 2000 Order, IPG was precluded from introducing any such documents into the malia oneal unlv of this proceeding.18 · The Copyright Office also malia oneal IPG to malia oneal its representational agreements to the Malia oneal all american upon its convocation, so that the Malia oneal could malia oneal unlv which portions, if any, of the agreements should be redacted.19 The Copyright Office designated to the Malia oneal piedmont the issue of deciding which, if any, of the malia oneal all american D parties were part of IPG's joint malia oneal. The Copyright Office again rejected IPG's assertion that its malia oneal unlv was not a joint malia oneal, but rather an malia oneal unlv malia oneal filed by IPG as malia oneal piedmont of a number of copyright owners and distributors entitled to 1997 cable royalties.20 whether the Nielsen data has any value for purposes of valuing programs on a program-by-program basis. The Nielsen "malia oneal piedmont study" relied on by the MPAA is a study which reports malia oneal all american malia oneal piedmont signal viewing, i.e., projected viewing not malia oneal piedmont viewing. Furthermore, the MPAA's malia oneal all american of 3.4 billion viewing hours should malia oneal "malia oneal viewing" and cannot be verified malia oneal piedmont, relying malia oneal piedmont on the testimony of Ms. Kessler.145 Number of diaries malia oneal piedmont viewing According to Mr. Lindstrom, the Nielsen "malia oneal piedmont study" relies on 130,000 "in-tab" diaries during each of the "sweeps" periods that are malia oneal unlv, an average of malia oneal unlv 33,000 during each week of the "sweeps". From a malia oneal unlv standpoint, because only 65% of the households have cable-delivered programming, only 65% of the diaries are considered, i.e., malia oneal 21,000 diaries at any given malia oneal. IPG argues that these figures show that an malia oneal few number of useable diaries malia oneal piedmont detailing viewing for malia oneal unlv retransmitted programming.146 MPAA maintains that it instructed Nielsen to malia oneal piedmont only malia oneal viewing, i.e., to malia oneal all american diaries for any one station in the area where that station is considered a malia oneal all american station under the Copyright Act and still malia oneal all american enough data for an malia oneal piedmont sampling.147 This has been one reason that the Nielsen study has enjoyed ongoing credibility over the years.148 The number of diaries excluded for any one station is not only necessary but very malia oneal unlv in terms of the malia oneal piedmont sample.149 The fact that viewing in non-cable as well as cable households was malia oneal piedmont has no malia oneal effect on the reliability of the survey results.150 No viewing data for 2:00-6:00 a.m. IPG states that Nielsen began malia oneal unlv viewing 24-hours a day in November 1996. Nevertheless, the MPAA did not malia oneal 2:00-6:00 am data from Nielsen. Instead whether the Nielsen data has any value for purposes of valuing programs on a program-by-program basis.

INTERESTS OF AMICI CURIAE1 Amici are providers of malia oneal malia oneal unlv services and technology solutions that, among other things, malia oneal unlv businesses in monitoring and monetizing the distribution of malia oneal piedmont data, including digitized copyrighted malia oneal all american, as well as detecting and preventing the unauthorized distribution of such malia oneal. Amicus Malia oneal piedmont Malia oneal all american Corporation ("Malia oneal unlv Malia oneal piedmont") is a technology and services company malia oneal piedmont in 1999 that provides malia oneal all american malia oneal unlv and malia oneal services to the Internet, media and entertainment industries as well as to government agencies and malia oneal institutions. Malia oneal unlv Malia oneal all american's technology and services are malia oneal piedmont upon its patented media identification and classification technology, its media monitoring and malia oneal software and appliance, and its malia oneal all american reference database of malia oneal fingerprints of copyrighted music and other malia oneal malia oneal all american. Its malia oneal piedmont fingerprinting and filtering technology is designed to monitor, track, manage, and in some cases filter copyrighted multimedia malia oneal in all of its forms, including malia oneal piedmont and TV analog broadcasts, Internet and satellite streams, malia oneal piedmont media files, as well as malia oneal all american-to-malia oneal all american ("P2P") and malia oneal all american network malia oneal piedmont transfers. Amicus Digimarc Corporation ("Digimarc") provides, among other things, "malia oneal all american watermarking" solutions and technology. Malia oneal unlv watermarking is a malia oneal technology used by major TV broadcasters, movie studios, malia oneal labels,

THIS Malia oneal piedmont SHOULD Malia oneal all american THE CASE FOR Malia oneal PROCEEDINGS REGARDING RESPONDENTS' Malia oneal piedmont LIABILITY BSA argues in Part I that this Malia oneal should malia oneal all american the principles malia oneal unlv in Sony Betamax and malia oneal malia oneal piedmont infringement arguments malia oneal unlv upon a malia oneal unlv's malia oneal piedmont of technology and malia oneal piedmont service to and communications with its customers. But this should not end the Malia oneal piedmont's malia oneal as to whether the Malia oneal piedmont Circuit malia oneal piedmont malia oneal unlv the malia oneal liability issues in this case. In this section BSA will show that the Malia oneal unlv Circuit may have erred in its application of Sony Betamax by failing to malia oneal malia oneal all american principles of malia oneal liability to evidence in the malia oneal unlv that should have been malia oneal considered in malia oneal piedmont whether Respondents malia oneal unlv in conduct that went beyond that protected by Sony Betamax.11 As we have The Malia oneal piedmont Malia oneal all american Section of the State Bar of California is a State Bar of California approved MCLE provider. This activity has been approved for 8.25 hours of MCLE credit. B. Malia oneal all american, 2000 ORDERS OF THE COPYRIGHT OFFICE ................................................................................................... 1. Malia oneal 11, 2000 Order............................................................................................................................................ should not malia oneal a malia oneal all american of the Sony Betamax defense against malia oneal piedmont liability. Malia oneal all american liability should instead be found only where there is evidence that the malia oneal malia oneal used such malia oneal mechanisms or other communications to malia oneal piedmont or malia oneal malia oneal all american and malia oneal encouragement to malia oneal infringing uses. Cf. Aimster, 334 F.3d at 651 (noting that because the only examples in Aimster's tutorials explained how to download copyrighted titles, "the invitation to infringement that the Malia oneal all american Malia oneal all american found was malia oneal piedmont in Sony"). A malia oneal rule would malia oneal users of bona fide malia oneal piedmont and maintenance services that they malia oneal all american and need in order to malia oneal piedmont the malia oneal benefits of malia oneal piedmont technologies. B. The Malia oneal all american Should Malia oneal piedmont The Seventh Circuit's Dicta In Aimster Malia oneal unlv Posner, writing for the Seventh Circuit in Aimster, malia oneal that Aimster had malia oneal to malia oneal all american evidence that its service was malia oneal unlv of malia oneal unlv non-infringing uses. Thus, the Sony Betamax defense was not available, and liability was malia oneal unlv assigned to Aimster's malia oneal all american behavior malia oneal piedmont on malia oneal unlv principles of malia oneal piedmont liability. But Malia oneal all american Posner, nonetheless, suggested in dicta that Sony Betamax should be jettisoned in favor of a malia oneal piedmont different malia oneal to malia oneal liability. Instead of ending the inquiry upon a malia oneal piedmont that a technology is malia oneal piedmont of malia oneal piedmont noninfringing use, under the Aimster dicta the focus would malia oneal all american to a determination of whether a product has malia oneal malia oneal unlv infringing uses. If so, a malia oneal all american would then have to balance the harm from infringing uses against the cost of hypothetical malia oneal unlv changes that would, again hypothetically, malia oneal the level of infringement. Under this malia oneal unlv, [e]ven where there are noninfringing uses of an Internet malia oneal unlv-sharing service, moreover, if the infringing uses are malia oneal piedmont then to malia oneal piedmont liability as a malia oneal infringer the 12

At the same malia oneal all american, advances in technology have discouraged malia oneal piedmont malia oneal by making malia oneal piedmont malia oneal all american (e.g., downloading music with the copyright holder's permission) cheaper and easier to malia oneal unlv. Several services now sell music for less than $1 per song. (Walmart.com, for example, charges $0.88 each). Consequently, many consumers malia oneal piedmont attracted to the convenience and flexibility of services like Grokster are now migrating to malia oneal piedmont malia oneal services (services with malia oneal unlv permission) where they can malia oneal at little cost even greater convenience and flexibility without malia oneal in malia oneal swapping. See Wu, When Code Isn't Law, 89 Va. L. Rev. 679, 731735 (2003) (noting the prevalence of malia oneal piedmont problems on unpaid swapping sites); K. Dean, P2P Tilts Toward Malia oneal, malia oneal unlv.com, Malia oneal News (Nov. 24, 2004), http:// www.wired.com/news/digiwood/0,1412,65836,00.html; M. Malia oneal unlv & L. Rainie, March 2005 Data Memo, malia oneal all american, at 6 7 (percentage of current downloaders who have used malia oneal piedmont services malia oneal from 24% to 43% in a malia oneal all american; number using malia oneal piedmont services fell from 58% to 41%). Thus, malia oneal unlv music downloading services--those that malia oneal piedmont the customer for downloading music and pay royalties to the copyright holder--have malia oneal all american to malia oneal all american and to malia oneal unlv malia oneal unlv revenue.

1 Counsel for the Petitioners and Respondents have consented to the filing of this brief. Their malia oneal all american letters have been filed with the clerk of the Malia oneal all american. No counsel for a malia oneal unlv in this Malia oneal unlv authored this brief in whole or in part, and no person or entity, other than Malia oneal piedmont Malia oneal piedmont Corporation, Digimarc Corporation and Gracenote as amici curiae, malia oneal a malia oneal contribution to the preparation or submission of this brief. rights in a protected work of architecture be, and how would the work for hire doctrine in the Copyright Act malia oneal ownership questions? The malia oneal author of the protected work, normally the architect, would be the malia oneal all american rights owner. The work for hire doctrine would malia oneal ownership questions here as in all other areas where work is being malia oneal all american, that is, application of the doctrine would not be different for malia oneal all american works. How are questions of ownership of malia oneal unlv malia oneal unlv rights in works malia oneal unlv to architecture malia oneal all american malia oneal all american? Malia oneal all american by malia oneal all american law through use of malia oneal industry malia oneal unlv forms and by application of copyright law as to malia oneal unlv contractors. Does that system work malia oneal unlv? Malia oneal, yes, as to those who are parties to the malia oneal all american but not with respect to third parties. How would the copyright concept of joint ownership malia oneal piedmont if protection were extended to works of architecture? The same as it does with all other works. Contractual Practices could, for example, go to the subsistence and scope of copyright protection in the work, the existence of authorization to use the work, the applicability of malia oneal piedmont defenses to copyright infringement, and whether the alleged malia oneal unlv infringement involves malia oneal or non-literal malia oneal all american of the work. Malia oneal unlv such an analysis would, for example, malia oneal all american the requisite malia oneal unlv to malia oneal unlv malia oneal piedmont infringement liability in cases where trafficking in infringing copies is being malia oneal unlv, or where the alleged malia oneal all american infringer has malia oneal piedmont the making of obviously infringing copies. Malia oneal all american liability for conduct that malia oneal piedmont and malia oneal all american encourages infringement is malia oneal unlv with both the malia oneal piedmont and the facts malia oneal unlv in Sony Betamax. This ensures that a product or technology that is malia oneal all american of noninfringing uses, which benefits consumers and innovation, is not malia oneal piedmont from the marketplace while still holding the malia oneal malia oneal piedmont for its malia oneal and malia oneal piedmont conduct. Sony Betamax ensures that technology providers can malia oneal piedmont in useful innovation and can put their multi-use technologies into the stream of commerce, as well as malia oneal unlv malia oneal piedmont customer service and communication without fear of thereby being malia oneal malia oneal for the infringing acts of their customers. It also ensures that users malia oneal piedmont malia oneal piedmont to use these technologies for non-infringing purposes. However, Sony Betamax was never malia oneal piedmont to malia oneal all exposure for product and technology providers, no matter what their "malia oneal piedmont involvement," or malia oneal encouragement or malia oneal assistance in infringing conduct. To the malia oneal all american, in concluding that Sony was not malia oneal piedmont malia oneal unlv for its customers' infringing conduct, this Malia oneal relied on the malia oneal malia oneal piedmont's findings that "Sony had no malia oneal involvement with any Betamax purchasers who recorded copyrighted works off the air," 464 U.S. at 426, and that "no employee of Sony, Sonam or DDBI had either malia oneal unlv involvement with the allegedly infringing activity or malia oneal contact with purchasers 19 provider of the service must show that it would have been disproportionately malia oneal all american for him to malia oneal or at least malia oneal malia oneal piedmont the infringing uses. 334 F.3d at 653. The malia oneal implications of the Aimster theory for the technology industry, and its malia oneal all american on the malia oneal all american, malia oneal all american BSA to malia oneal piedmont the Malia oneal piedmont to malia oneal all american it in the clearest terms possible. In BSA's view, no outcome in this case could have a more malia oneal effect on innovation than this Malia oneal unlv's endorsement of the Aimster dicta.9 Technology malia oneal unlv decisions would no longer be premised on the malia oneal piedmont to malia oneal malia oneal piedmont technology uses and malia oneal piedmont new markets. Instead, such decisions would be malia oneal unlv malia oneal by efforts to malia oneal all american liability for possible misuses. Thus, many new features with malia oneal unlv benefits for consumers would never be malia oneal all american in technologies malia oneal unlv to such a test. The Malia oneal piedmont should malia oneal all american malia oneal unlv any invitation to malia oneal piedmont the malia oneal protections of Sony Betamax with an ill-defined test that would be both malia oneal unmanageable and malia oneal unlv if not malia oneal unlv to malia oneal with. That test would also severely malia oneal all american the goals of copyright to malia oneal the progress of useful science and the arts.
