Copyright 2.0 Show – Episode 155

It is Friday again and that means that it is time for another episode of the Copyright 2.0 Show.

It was a busy week for copyright news as many of the industry’s biggest dramas slowly ground their way to a conclusion. For one, we are now closer to learning the eventual fate of Limewire, the now endangered file-swapping service, we also get some feedback on Canada’s new copyright law and even a webmaster take on Apple’s new version of Safari.

All in all, it was an action-packed week of copyright news as discussed with the usual lack of decorum that you expect from the Copyright 2.0 Show.

This week’s stories include:

  • LimeWire Gets a (Short) Reprieve
  • Canada’s New Draft Law Draws Praise and Criticism
  • A Surprising Ruling on “Making Available” in the Netherlands
  • The Ghost Hunters Win a Copyright Case
  • Is Safari 5 a Copyright-Infringing Machine?
  • And Many more…
