Eps 210 – Bankruptcy

Money and DIce Image

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

It was a slammed week for copyright news and with Patrick back from his trip to the west coast we couldn’t waste a moment before diving on in to the news. We start out discussing the SAP/Oracle case, which saw criminal charges get filed and settled almost the same day, Hotfile pulls a bit of turnabout on Warner Brothers and the EU copyright extension that went through.

Then there was six more stories to go…

All in all, this is an episode you do not want to miss so fire up your MP3 players and give it a listen!

This week’s stories include:

  • SAP Faces Criminal Charges, Settles Them Immediately
  • Hotfile Sues Warner Brothers Over DMCA Abuse
  • EU Extends Sound Recording Copyright from 50 to 70 Years
  • Authors Guild Sues Several Universities
  • Google Pressed to Block Pirate Sites
  • Much, Much More!
