I am just wondering how do you determine which material is something you cannot reproduce under that law? I can only come up with the most obvious pictures like wedding photos, when the client coming to you is one in the picture. If the client coming to the counter is someone else, not appearing in the pictures, then what? He (or she) may well be the photographer, are you going to demand a signed release? What if he writes the release there and then? I can see your company starting to loose customers (also those who have nothing to do with copying copyrighted material) based on this. I know nothing about real law suits in the US but based on this discussion the ridiculous law suits in the many tv law series make more sense... ;-).
