Hi Dark, Yes, I think challenging some of the laws, hard to do, is one of the only ways of making any headway. I am all for copyrights, but sometimes they tend to stomp out those who don't have an equal or near equal access to that content. As far as games go I'd like something put in to the existing copyright laws that is similar to the written materials. It can only be copyed or used in an accessible manner or specialised format for blind and visually impaired or something like that. At the national level it would go over any company license agreement if the audio content or whatever was used in a specialised format for the blind, etc...
