    Title: Internet Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Policy Policy Number 2010-002 TopicalArea: Security Document Type Program Policy Pages: 3 Effective Date 8t20t2010 POC for Changes Director, Office of Computing and Information Services (OCIS) Synopsis Establishes a Dalton State College-wide policy regarding copyright infringement. Overview The popularity of Internet peer-to-peer file sharing is often the source of network resource allocation problems and copyright infringement. Purpose This policy will define Internet peer-to-peer file sharing and state the policy of Dalton State College (DSC) on this issue. Scope The scope of this policy includes all DSC computing resources. Policy Internet peer-to-peer file sharing applications are frequently used to distribute copyrighted materials such as music, motion pictures, and computer software. Such exchanges are illegal and are not permifted on Dalton State Gollege computers or network. See the standards outlined in the Appropriate Use Policy. DSG Procedures and Sanctions Failure to comply with the appropriate use of these resources threatens the atmosphere for the sharing of information, the free exchange of ideas, and the secure environment for creating and maintaining information property, and subjects one to discipline. Any user of any DSC system found using lT resources for unethical and/or inappropriate practices has violated this policy and is subject to disciplinary proceedings including suspension of DSC privileges, expulsion from school, termination of employment and/or legal action as may be appropriate. Although all users of DSC's lT resources have an expectation of privacy, their right to privacy may be superseded by DSC's requirement to protect the integrity of its lT resources, the rights of all users and the property of DSC and the State.

  • "Licensing Music Works and Transaction Costs in Europe”
    "Licensing music works and transaction costs in Europe” Final study September 2012 1 Acknowledgements: KEA would like to thank Google, the internet services company, for financing which made this study possible. The study was carried out independently and reflects the views of KEA alone. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Establishing and running online music services is a complex task, raising both technical and legal difficulties. This is particularly the case in Europe, where complex rights licensing structures hinder the development of the market and the launch of new innovative online services. Compared to the US, Europe is lagging behind in terms of digital music revenue. Furthermore, the development of the market is fairly disparate among different countries in the European Union. This study aims to identify and analyse transaction costs in music licensing. It examines the online music markets and outlines the licensing processes faced by online services. It offers a qualitative and quantitative analysis of transaction costs in the acquisition of the relevant rights by online music services. The study also suggests different ways of decreasing transaction costs. The research focuses on three countries (the UK, Spain and the Czech Republic) and builds on data collected through a survey with online music service providers available in the three countries as well as interviews with relevant stakeholders in the field of music licensing. THE EUROPEAN ONLINE MUSIC MARKET The music industry has steadily expanded over the past few years, away from selling CDs towards selling music online or through concerts and live music. (Masnick, Ho, 2012). Among the 500 licensed online music services in the world (according to IFPI), many emulate the physical record store, by offering ‘download to own’ tracks at a similar price point.

  • Downloading, Streaming and Digital Lending
    Music in the Digital Age: Downloading, Streaming and Digital Lending James Mason, University of Toronto Jared Wiercinski, Concordia University Introduction The ways in which we listen to music, and the places we look to find it, have changed radically in the last thirty years. In 1980, Philips and Sony proposed the Red Book standard for Compact Discs (CDs),1 with a little help from Beethoven.2 Although it was not the first storage medium for digital audio, the introduction of the CD signaled that the world of digital music was about to go mainstream. The technology behind communications devices such as telephones, radios, and personal computers continued to evolve, and before long, the foundation for the Internet was firmly in place. This multifaceted and complex "global system of interconnected computer networks"3 was about to revolutionize the distribution of sound recordings. As Leiner says, "The Internet is at once a world-wide broadcasting capability, a mechanism for information dissemination, and a medium for collaboration and interaction between individuals and their computers without regard for geographic location."4 Only fifteen years after the introduction of the Red Book, music was being distributed over the Internet. RealNetworks' RealAudio Player, for example, was released in April 1995, and was one of the first media players capable of streaming media over the Internet.5 Now, recorded music is more accessible than ever before. We enjoy unprecedented access to music through a variety of means, including both web access and via mobile devices such as smartphones, the iPod touch 1 British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) News, “How the CD Was Developed,” http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6950933.stm (accessed March 16, 2010).
