Re: In The News

Breaking with the trend of recent court rulings, the Federal District 
Court for the Central District of California denied motions by the 
music industry to grant summary judgment against Grokster and other P2P 
system--the court instead granted the motions made by Grokster, 
reasoning that Grokster is only providing software, not committing 
infringment.  Among the findings of the court: Unlike Napster, Grokster 
is removed from the activities of the users; Grokster can be used for 
substantial non-infringing activities.  Much to study.  Take a look at:
