Make "fair use" a right in all EU nations.  If that were to happen it would be too big a market for any content provider (e.g. iTunes Music Store etc.) to pull out of because of restrictions on the use of DRM.<br><br><br>==<br><a href="http://korhonen.matt.googlepages.com" rel="nofollow">http://korhonen.matt.googlepages.com</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matias Korhonen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 1st 2006 3:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on UK think-tank argues for 'legal right to copy' one's own CDs]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/31/uk-think-tank-argues-for-legal-right-to-copy-ones-own-cds/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/31/uk-think-tank-argues-for-legal-right-to-copy-ones-own-cds/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't think the US doctrine of fair use actually goes so far as to create a right to rip. Mostly, fair use governs things like short quotes of books in reviews, or (I think) those short 30 second sound clips of music you can hear on Amazon, or many other sites that sell music. In fact, some may recall this:<br><br><a href="http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/archives/004409.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/archives/004409.php</a><br><br>where the RIAA is specifically saying that ripping is not a form of fair use, as a matter of law, but might be a broadly authorized use by the copyright holders. (And therefore, as the EFF ominously points out, subject to withdrawal of authorization.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dave]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 1st 2006 5:19AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
