    533 ANTITRUST, INTELLECTU AL PROPERTY, AND THE ITUNES ECOSYSTEM: A STUDY OF THE ANTITRUST IMPLICATIONS OF APPLE’S FAIRPLAY TECHNOLOGY WITH A NOD TO THE PECULIARITIES OF • INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY WILLOW NOONAN* I. INTRODUCTION In December 2008, Apple’s iTunes online music store surpassed Wal- Mart as the largest music retailer in the world.1 In the closely related portable music player market, Apple’s iPod enjoys similar success.2 Undoubtedly, Ap- ple’s insight and innovation won much of this eminence. However, a close look at Apple’s business practices reveals some conduct that draws a suspicious eye from antitrust and intellectual property laws. The first part of this article traces the development of online music and the subsequent proliferation of copyright infringement. The next part outlines the technical details, benefits, and drawbacks of Apple’s iTunes ecosystem, a notable combination of Apple products and services. The third part undertakes a traditional antitrust analysis of Apple’s conduct and suggests the need for dee- per inquiry. The next part investigates how Apple’s conduct implicates intellec- tual property law. The fifth part reviews the doctrine of intellectual property misuse and how it might apply to Apple. The final part revisits the antitrust • 2009 IDEA Student Intellectual Property Writing Competition Winner. * Candidate for Juris Doctor, 2010, The George Washington University Law School. 1 Press Release, Apple, Inc., iTunes Store Top Music Retailer in the US (Apr. 3, 2008), http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2008/04/03itunes.html [hereinafter iTunes Store]. 2 Jessica Hodgson, Leap Year Trips Zune in Black Eye for Microsoft, WALL ST.

No. Plaintiff-Appellant, 5:07-cv-06507- JW v. APPLE, INC., OPINION Defendant-Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California James Ware, District Judge, Presiding Argued and Submitted February 11, 2013—San Francisco, California Filed September 3, 2013 Before: Dorothy W. Nelson, Stephen Reinhardt, and Milan D. Smith, Jr., Circuit Judges. Opinion by Judge Milan D. Smith, Jr. 2 SOMERS V. APPLE, INC. SUMMARY* Antitrust The panel affirmed the district court’s dismissal of a putative class action against Apple, Inc., alleging antitrust violations in connection with Apple’s iPod and iTunes Music Store. The panel held that the plaintiff waived review of the district court’s order denying certification of a class of indirect purchasers of the iPod because she abandoned her underlying individual claim under § 2 of the Sherman Act based on inflated iPod prices. The panel also held that the plaintiff failed to allege sufficient facts to state antitrust claims for damages and injunctive relief. The plaintiff alleged that Apple encoded iTunes Music Store music files with its proprietary Digital Rights Management (DRM), called FairPlay, which rendered the music files and the iPod compatible only with each other. She alleged that through certain software updates, Apple excluded competitors and obtained a monopoly in the portable digital media player and music download markets, which inflated Apple’s music prices and deflated the value of the iPod.

  • The Many Facades of DRM
    The Many Facades of DRM Author: Rod Schultz [email protected] 1. INTRODUCTION In February 2007, Apple's CEO Steve Jobs wrote an open letter to the world denouncing DRM and its use in the music industry. In this letter Jobs stated, "DRMs haven’t worked, and may never work, to halt music piracy". The world took notice of this statement, and blogs all over the Internet were devoted to interpreting his message and meaning. The debate over DRM and its value began even before that, and has raged for over a decade now. Over time more and more people have developed a mental picture of what DRM is and what it does. But what do people really know about DRM? Most people only understand that a DRM prevents them from sharing or copying music and movies. Very few understand the intricate nature of this technology, how it enables business models, how it is built, and how it can be attacked. Even fewer understand the sheer mathematical complexity needed to create a DRM, and the cost of maintaining it. In this article I will discuss the many facades of DRM, including its multiple layers, their construction, and the functionality they provide. I will expand on DRM techniques and how they can fail based on my experiences at Apple (iTunes and iPod protection) and Adobe (Flash Player RTMPe protection). 2. BUSINESS MODEL Perhaps the most interesting thing about the Steve Jobs DRM letter to the world was the timing. When it was written, I was a member of the Apple FairPlay team (the engineering group at Apple that creates its DRM) and we were already working on a software update to iTunes that would allow the purchase and playback of DRM free music.

Navigating the iPod FairPlay DRM Controversy By Nicola F. Sharpe* and Olufunmilayo B. Arewa** I. INTRODUCTION ¶1 On April 2, 2007, Apple Inc. and EMI Music held a joint press conference in London that may be the harbinger of significant changes in the digital music arena.1 This press conference, whose attendees included EMI Group CEO Eric Nicoli and Apple CEO Steve Jobs, unfolded in an environment of significant technological and commercial changes in the music industry. The shift to the digital era has been a turbulent one for many players in the music industry, particularly as a result of the widespread distribution of unauthorized digital music files and the concurrent significant decline in record industry sales.2 The Apple-EMI agreement permits Apple to sell EMI Music’s entire digital music catalog without digital rights management (DRM),3 which represents a significant shift from the previous policy of the major record companies.
