Mark Schreiber on 24 Aug 10The law was written in an analog era, and it targeted those who copied tapes or CDs. Such people couldn't claim not to know about the copyrighted nature of the works they were copying-it was written right there on the cassette or CD! But in the digital world, this makes no sense. How could slapping a copyright notice on a CD alert anyone using a P2P network about anything?
