Copyright 2.0 Show – Episode 253 – Wild Turkey

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

It was a doozy of the week for the Copyright 2.0 Show as our sports metaphors got a bit more out of sorts than usual. Sure we all know what three strikes is, though it’s not clear what that means in France, but what the heck do you a “Six Strikes” system? We wrestled with that question and came up with at least one non-compelling answer (Spoiler: Check the title).

But we also have one of the greatest tales of hypocrisy we have seen in a while and another copyright conundrum that will probably keep us both awake at night. All of this and a $180 art book that doesn’t have any images in it.

This is definitely one show you don’t want to miss!

This week’s stories include:

  • US to Launch Six Strikes This Year
  • France Three Strikes Claims First Victim
  • Zynga Fires Back at EA
  • Google Gets Stay in Book Search Case
  • Canadian Mint Drops Royalty Request Over Penny Design
  • Guyana Requests Pirated Textbooks
  • Pirate Party Member Enforces Her Copyright (Through Her Publisher)
  • What Costs $180 and has no photographs in it? An Art Book in Canada
