U.S. District Judge Nancy Gertner of Massachusetts granted over-the-internet coverage for a Jan. 22 motions hearing in the RIAA's lawsuit against Boston University student Joel Tenenbaum and others. The defendants are seeking to dismiss allegations they shared copyrighted music over peer-to-peer networks. ...The internet feed will be provided by Courtroom View Network and will be funneled to the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School, which will broadcast the hearing live. Trial in the case is scheduled for March 30. Cameras have only been granted for the 2 p.m. Eastern, Jan. 22 hearing." http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2009/01/riaa-court-hear.html ________________________________________ ?? ??????: ????? ????? 15 ????? 2009 15:25 ????: 'Museum Computer Network Listserv' ??????: [MCN-L] Joel Fights Back " Joel Tenenbaum is just like you. Joel has been accused by the music industry of downloading seven songs from a file-sharing network in 2004. In return, the plaintiffs are seeking almost $1 million in damages. One million dollars for seven songs. Professor Charles Nesson * and a team of his students from Harvard Law are helping Joel to defend himself against the Goliath music industry by challenging the Constitutional underpinnings of the witch hunt against the born-digital generation. At some point, the fallout from the early years of music download from file sharing will need to be settled once and for all. This is our story. It is your story too. And we need your support.
