Summary:
"This book offers an overview of U.S. copyright law. Coverage ranges from the fundamental concepts of originality, authorship, and infringement to the highly technical rules governing digital phonorecord deliveries and digital public performance rights in sound recordings, the safe harbor provisions that limit the liability of Internet service providers, and the anti-circumvention and copyright management information provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. This updated edition includes analysis of the changes introduced by the Music Modernization Act of 2018, as well as the creation of the Copyright Claims Board. It also examines the evolving doctrines of fair use and contributory liability"--Publisher's description.
