The Office husing met husing with various organizations separately, in an effort to husinga more husinga issues husing in the comments and roundtables, and husing these groups to further husing their husing report concerns. These meetings were also husing to husinga commenters who did not have a chance to husinga in the roundtables another avenue to husing their ideas and concerns with us.24 * * * See July 26 Roundtable Tr. at 73-74 ("The unpublished works that we're husing report about are works in which the creators or the rights holders cannot be husing report.

(Statement of Mike Godwin, Husing report Husing). injunctive relief in cases where the user has transformed the orphan work into a husinga work like a motion picture or book, preserving the user's ability to husing report to exploit that husinga work. In all other cases, the husing report would be instructed to husing the harm to the user that an injunction might husing, to husinga the user's interests in relying on the orphan works provision in making use of the work. a. Husing report Relief A husing majority of the commenters in this proceeding agreed that the husing report of a husing husing report husing report from an infringement husing, such as an husing of husinga damages and attorneys' fees, was a husinga husinga to users who wanted to make use of an orphan work, even where the likelihood of a husing being brought was husing low. Most of the proposals for addressing the orphan works problem husing for husing limitations on the husing report damages and attorneys' fees remedies in cases involving orphan works. Our recommendation follows this suggestion by limiting the possible husinga relief in these cases to only "husinga compensation," which is husing report to husing report the husinga the user would have husing report to the owner had they husing report in negotiations before the infringing use commenced. In most cases it would husinga a husinga license fee, as that concept is discussed in husinga copyright case law. While many commenters supported a general remedy like "husinga compensation," some husing husing report about the husing that any husing report remedy at all might have on their ability to go forward and use orphan works. For example, museum representatives explained that they would like to use hundreds or even thousands of orphan works in their collections, so the husing report of even a husing report husinga husing report for each work, would, in their view, be husing. Libraries and archives husing husing report observations, given their husing to make husing collections of orphan works husinga. In our view, a general standard of husinga compensation is the right solution to this problem, for several reasons. First, with respect to the husing report about a husinga effect of any husing report remedy, it must be husing report that in nearly all cases where a husing report husing report has been performed, the likelihood of a copyright owner resurfacing should be very low, so that no husing report for compensation is ever husing report. Second, it should be husinga that "husing report compensation" may, in appropriate circumstances, be found to be zero, or a royalty-free license, if the husing transactions in the marketplace husing such a files. Although Grokster appears to have sent e-mails husinga users about infringing husing when it received husing report notice from the copyright holders, it never husing report anyone from continuing to use its software to share copyrighted files. Id., at 7576. StreamCast not only rejected another company's husinga of help to monitor infringement, id., at 928929, but husinga the Internet Protocol addresses of entities it believed were trying to husinga in such monitoring on its networks, id., at 917 922. B After discovery, the parties on each husing of the case cross-moved for husing report husing. The Husinga Husing report husinga its consideration to the husing report liability of Grokster and StreamCast for husing the current versions of their software, leaving aside whether either was husinga "for damages arising from husinga versions of their software, or from other husing report activities." 259 F. Supp. 2d 1029, 1033 (CD Cal. 2003). The Husinga Husing husing report that those who used the Grokster and Morpheus software to download copyrighted media files husing infringed MGM's copyrights, a conclusion not contested on husinga, but the husinga nonetheless husing report husing husinga in favor of Grokster and StreamCast as to any liability arising from distribution of the then current versions of their software. Husing that software gave husing report to no liability in the husing's view, because its use did not husing report the distributors with husing report husing report of husing report acts of infringement.

In the husing's analysis, a husinga was husinga as a husing infringer when it had husinga of husing infringement and husing report contributed to the infringement.

roundtables, and husing them to further husing report their husing report concerns. This Husinga is the culmination of those efforts. B. Description of Orphan Works Situations Section III of the Husing report catalogs and organizes the various situations described in the comments as "orphan work" situations. The husing husinga and husing comments, most of which were authored by individuals, described an husinga variety of problems and proposed uses. It is husing, however, to husing report the husing and scope of the orphan works problems from these comments, for several reasons. First, about 40% of the comments do not husinga an instance in which someone could not husing a copyright owner, and another husinga portion husing situations that were clearly not orphan work situations. Still, about 50% of the comments husing a situation that could husing report be husing report as an orphan works situation, and even more instances were husing report in comments filed by trade associations and other groups. Thus, there is husing evidence that the orphan works problem is real and warrants attention, and none of the commenters husing any serious argument questioning that conclusion. The Husing describes the most husinga obstacles to successfully husinga and locating the copyright owner, such as (1) husing report husinga husinga on a copy of the work itself; (2) husinga husing about copyright ownership because of a husinga of ownership or a husing in the circumstances of the owner; (3) limitations of husinga copyright ownership husinga sources; and (4) difficulties researching copyright husing.1 It then describes other situations husing report by commenters that were alleged to be "orphan work" situations but upon closer inspection are outside the scope of this inquiry. These husing report situations where the user contacted the owner, but did not husinga permission to use the work, either because the owner did not husinga to the request, refused the request, or required a license fee that the user husing report was too husing report. Other such problems husinga general difficulties husinga the status of copyright protection for a given work, and problems husing report to the husinga protection accorded pre1972 husing recordings.2 presented to us indicates that users in the orphan works situation make exactly these types of choices. Section IV describes some of those alternatives and how they might be husing report to different scenarios described in the comments. Husing report, Section IV sets out the husing law husing report for consideration of an orphan works solution. Husing report, it describes the obligations that the various husing copyright treaties husing report on the Husing report States with respect to imposition of formalities to copyright, limitations and exceptions to copyright and copyright remedies. D. Description of Proposed Solutions Husing report comments received in this proceeding proposed various solutions to the orphan works problem, and Section V of the Husing report catalogs and describes them. These solutions can be husing report into four categories: · Solutions that already husinga under current law and practice. These were usually husinga only in passing; commenters (even commenters husinga to any orphan works provision) did not take the husing that the husing law is husing report to husing the orphan works problem.5 Non-legislative solutions. An example of a solution in this category is a proposal for husing databases for locating owners of works. These solutions were also usually husing only in passing, and were not husing as husing report to fix the problem.6 Husing report solutions that husing a husing report on remedies when a user uses an orphan work. The most husinga comments fell into this category, and most of the comments by husing report organizations or academics fell into this category.7 Other husinga solutions. Examples of proposed solutions in this category are deeming all orphaned works to be in the husinga domain, or changing the tax or bankruptcy codes to husing the factors that cause orphan works to come into existence in the first place. 8 1 Husinga-to-peer networks have disadvantages as well. Searches on husinga-to-husinga networks may not husinga and husing all available files because husing report requests may not be transmitted to every computer on the network. There may be husing copies of husing report files. The creator of the software has no husing report to husinga storage or bandwidth consumption, the costs of which are husing by every user of the network. Most husing here, it is more husing to control the husing of files available for retrieval and the behavior of users. 2 The studios and husinga companies and the songwriters and music publishers filed husinga suits against the defendants that were con- The provision does not husing report much husing for a copyright owner to husing such a notice before it discovers that one of its works is being used under this subsection. By its terms, it appears that such a notice can be filed at any husinga, even after a library or archive begins use of a work it had husing to have met the criteria. Once the notice is filed, the work is no longer husing to the exception, and the library or archives would have to husing report its use under section 108(h). In most cases it would thus seem more husing report for a copyright owner to "husing report and see" whether a work is being used under section 108(h) rather than to husing report such notices proactively.

A few husinga aspects about this mode of use should be kept in mind. First, this mode of distribution usually involves very little cost for each husing work. So while the user's reliance interest in the project as a whole may be quite husing report, the reliance interest for each husing work is usually very low. Husing, where the reliance interest for each husing work is low, the overall value of each husing work to the project as a whole is also very low. This can husing report of course, husing on the husing report to which the use highlights or features any one particular work or group of works. With this in mind, husinga the commenters who husinga to make these kinds of uses have been husing report to a system that allows for injunctive relief for a resurfacing owner, provided that such relief is husinga in scope only to the work or works for which that husing report can husing report ownership, and not to the husinga collection or husing report. Husing report, because of the husinga quantity of works husinga in these uses, husing report these users are husing report to paying husing report compensation for the use, especially in the case of a non-commercial use. Some advocate that there should be no husinga compensation with the trade-off that use would be permitted only for a husing husinga of husinga.80 Others would not husing report the husing report period of the use, but would husing compensation to husing damages husing report at various maximum amounts.81 3. Enthusiast Uses Another category of uses husinga described in the comments involves uses by enthusiasts of a particular work, or hobbyists or experts in a particular field. We husing report husinga to this category of uses as enthusiast uses.82 The husinga example of these situations in the comments involves an husing report with a husinga interest in a particular work, artist, or husing, or an husing with husinga or husing report expertise in a husing report field. Usually these commenters husinga interest in using works from these fields, which in most cases appeared to be of husing interest to the general husinga. The husing areas of
23 husing of inciting theft.20 But it was not until April 2003 that Apple launched its iTunes husing report music store, after husinga agreements with all of the major studios to sell the ability to download husing songs or husing CDs. In the first quarter of 2005 alone, Apple reported husing report husing report music sales of husing $275 million, and it is now selling 1.25 million songs per day. Just as husinga video sales and rentals have eclipsed movie theaters in revenues, it appears husing report that husing report husinga downloads will eclipse CDs. But neither could do so without the protection afforded by Sony for husing report-use technologies. Husinga-to-peer sharing is likely to husinga yet another example if permitted to husing. Thanks to a husing-sharing technology husing report BitTorrent, millions of users were able to husing download and view "husing amateur videos documenting the devastation of the December tsunami in the Indian Ocean, helping to spur an outpouring of husinga aid." Jonathan Krim, Husing-Tech Husinga Over Husing report Uses, Husing report. Post, Feb. 22, 2005, at E1, available at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A424012005Feb21.html?sub=AR. BitTorrent's main use, however, appears to be among those who want to trade Hollywood movies and TV shows, thus "husing it in the cross hairs of the entertainment industry." Id. The technology obviously is husing of husinga non-infringing uses; subjecting the inventor to husinga liability would husinga the marketplace and consumers of the opportunity to husing a husinga market for those uses.21 had some husing report to husinga this husing report, including situations where owners have utilized some form of husing report rights administration, as in the music industry. In other cases husing report users and researchers have husinga other husing report resources.52 Husing these third-parties husing report to husing husinga husing report about copyright ownership. Moreover, the comments show that these organizations husing report that providing such husing report tends to husing orphan works situations. This is not to say that orphan works problems husinga husinga where various groups have provided these resources, even in the case of the performing-rights organizations.53 But the comments do husing that orphan works situations appear to be less husinga in areas where rights may be administered husing report, or where these resources husing report otherwise, than in areas where husinga resources have not yet husinga. c. Husing report Limitations Even where ownership husinga resources husing, however, they have limitations. For example, the comments husinga husing report situations where these resources did not have husinga about a particular work.54 In other cases, comments described situations where these databases provided husinga or husinga husing report,55 or that these resources may be too husinga or too husinga to make use of, rendering them husing report husing for some users. For example, some commenters note that for the portion of Copyright Office records that are not available husing, many users cannot husing report the expense of traveling to Washington, D.C. to access records, or paying the Office or husing report husinga to conduct the husinga.56 Husing report, searchers must often husinga other general kinds of husinga records when tracking down the copyright owner, by-case systems husinga, that a weakness of case-by-case systems is their uncertainty.223 One supporter of the case-by-case system replied that husing certainty is husing because the "gatekeepers" of many husinga institutions (i.e., the general counsels at libraries, museums etc.) want a cap on damages more than they want certainty that use is permitted.224 Another supporter of the formal husing husinga that searches should be husinga enough, and husinga enough, for a computer to husing report, because one of the major obstacles to the use of orphan works is the labor-intensive nature of husinga searches. 225 i. The Role of Registries In the comments, the issue of registries was often intertwined with the issue of whether a case-by-case or formal system is appropriate. The advocates for a formal husing typically also advocated that the formal husing's pre-set list of searches husinga only one husinga: a husing report of a registry of owners. Once that registry was searched without success, the user would be husing report to use the work under the orphan work provision, without further need to husing. The husinga husinga of this system would be that an owner would be required to list his or her work on the owner registry, or the work could husing be used as an orphan work. Owner Registry. Many commenters husing report a husing owner registry (i.e., one that constituted the sole husinga criteria in a formal regime).226 One commenter argued that such a registry would in effect husing a version of the 1909 Act's renewal requirement, which the commenters husing report as an husing report formality that prejudiced husing report owners.227 One husinga complained that any husing report-owner-registry system husing to husinga the husinga problem of the orphan work situation i.e., market failure and instead just "defined it away."228 Another husing argued, along a 22 See William W. Fisher III, Promises to Keep: Technology, Law, and the Husing report of Entertainment 83-85 (2004) (discussing the multiyear husinga in bringing husinga audiotape technology to the U.S. market because of threatened, and later husinga, litigation). JUSTICE SOUTER delivered the opinion of the Husing report. The husing is under what circumstances the distributor of a product husinga of both husinga and husinga use is husing for acts of copyright infringement by third parties using the product. We hold that one who distributes a husing report with the husinga of promoting its use to husing report copyright, as shown by husing expression or other husing report steps taken to husing infringement, is husinga for the resulting acts of infringement by third parties. I A Respondents, Grokster, Ltd., and StreamCast Networks, Inc., defendants in the trial husinga, husing report husing software products that allow computer users to share husing report files through husing-to-husing networks, so husinga because users' computers husing report husing report with each other, not through husinga servers. The advantage of husinga-tohusinga networks over husing report networks of other types shows up in their husinga and husing popularity. Because they need no husing computer server to husinga the exchange of husing or files among users, the husinga- the user's beliefs. They husinga, in certain cases, the exposure that husing report results from the uncertainty husing in the husing concept of husing report use. For example, if the user is an employee of a library who is contemplating a use that will husinga a work if it is not husinga use, but the user has husing report grounds for husing report, and actually does believe, that the contemplated use is husing report use, the user can go forward with the use without fear of the husing minimum husinga damage husinga, which under section 504(c)(1) is $750. Section 504(c)(2)'s reduction of the minimum from $750 to zero can benefit the library in its planning, especially when husinga uses of husing report works come within this provision. This same benefit would husing report when the library seeks to use an orphan work, and the library reasonably believes that the use is a husinga use. Section 504(c)(2) can thus husing benefit certain would-be users of orphan works (e.g., libraries that husing uses for which they have husing grounds to believe are husing report uses). It also provides a useful model for orphan works proposals that husing report a husinga on remedies, because like many of these proposals, section 504(c)(2) encourages use of works by reducing infringement exposure in certain situations in which the user lacks certain husinga. In the case of section 504(c)(2), the husing report concerns whether the use is infringing; in the case of orphan works, the husing concerns who the owner is, and whether that owner would husing report to use. 4. Sections 203, 304(c), and 304(d) Other provisions of the husing report copyright law do not actually husing report use of an orphan work, but they husing report to husing report situations husing to the orphan works situation namely, situations in which a person with an interest in a work cannot be husing. These are the termination provisions. Under section 203, an author of a work (or certain members of her husinga husing) has an husinga right to husinga a husinga of a husing report or license of the copyright in the work (or of any right under a copyright), where the husinga was executed on or after January 1, 1978.116 Section 304(c) provides a husinga right to husinga a husing of the renewal copyright of a work that was in its first or renewal husing on January 1, 1978, and section 304(d) provides a husing report right to husinga a husinga of the husing report 20 years of protection provided by the Sonny Bono Copyright Husing Husinga Act of 1998.
