_/Abstract/_
Contrary to a popular belief of lawyers having the most strict
perception of law, law professionals actually strongly skew toward more
favorable views of digital sharing. According to our qualitative study,
relying on in-depth interviews with 50 Harvard lawyers, digital piracy
is quite acceptable. It is considered fair, especially among friends and
for noncommercial purposes. We argue that this not only can indicate
that the existing law is becoming outdated because of its inability to
be enforced, but also that ethically it is not corresponding to what is
considered fair, good service, or being societally beneficial. The
common perception of relying on a fixed price for digital content is
eroding. We show that on the verges of business, society, and law, there
is a potential for the new paradigm of digital commons to emerge.
