Open Source Cinema - An Open Source Documentary Film about Copyright

Intro - MGM vs Grokster

In 2005, I attended the MGM vs. Grokster supreme court decision. Hundreds of people protested outside the courthouse. The music industry told kids "music is like a donut - you buy it, then you get to eat it". The kids outside said "I don't think you can own music. Its just, like, words".

These two statements contain everything you want to know about the copyright debate. Is music (and culture) a product? Can an idea be owned? Or should they be free? And free on who's terms?

The music industry suggested that iPods have a substantial and legitimate commercial use in contrast to Grokster, to which Souter replied, "I know perfectly well that I can buy a CD and put it on my iPod. But I also know if I can get music without buying it, I'm going to do so.

Whether we believe it is right or not, many of us have become accustomed to the fact that a large number people download copyrighted material regularly using Peer-to-Peer file-sharing software. As a result, the entertainment industry is losing billions of dollars in revenue, and is suffering from the infringements of many copyrights.

Dave Slusher has an excellent article detailing just what is at stake in the case of MGM v. Grokster.
Without the technological innovation of P2P networks, Dave would be unable to reach the huge numbers of individuals that he currently does: it simply wouldn’t be cost effective.

Personal Injury Claims

There are so many copyright infringement suits going on right now.
