CPI Antitrust Chronicle May 2013 (2) Rethinking A Digital First Sale Doctrine In A Post- Kirtsaeng World: The Case For Caution John Villasenor1 I. INTRODUCTION In 1908, the Supreme Court articulated the first sale doctrine, holding in Bobbs-Merrill Co. v. Straus2 that a copyright owner’s “right to vend” did not include the right “to control all future retail sales.” The doctrine was codified in the Copyright Act of 19093 and again in §109(a) of the Copyright Act of 1976, which states: Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106(3) the owner of a particular copy or phonorecord lawfully made under this title, or any person authorized by such owner, is entitled, without the authority of the copyright owner, to sell or otherwise dispose of the possession of that copy or phonorecord.4 §109(a) has generally been interpreted to apply to digital works only to the extent the material object containing a lawfully made copy is physically transferred pursuant to a sale or other disposition.5 For example, the owners of lawfully made movie DVDs and music CDs are free to sell them on eBay or donate them to a library. In addition, there is nothing in the language of §109(a) that would prohibit the sale of a storage device such as an iPod containing songs that were lawfully purchased (as opposed to licensed) and downloaded. -

Digital Rights Management
Journal of Intellectual Property Rights Vol 9, July 2004, pp 313-331 Digital Rights Management: An Integrated Secure Digital Content Distribution Technology P Ghatak, R C Tripathi, A K Chakravarti Department of Information Technology, Electronics Niketan, 6, CGO Complex, New Delhi-110 003 Received 5 December 2003 The ability to distribute copyrighted works in digital form through high capacity prere- corded disks (CD ROMs, DVDs etc.) and Internet-enabled transmissions have brought new challenges to the protections of such content from unauthorized copying and use. Technological advancements in this regard are reviewed. Despite the ease with which digital content owners can now transfer data, images, music, video and multimedia documents across the Internet, cur- rent technology does not let them protect their rights to the works, which has resulted into wide- spread music and video piracy. In fact, although the Internet permits widespread dissemination of digital content, the easy-to-copy nature of digital data limits content owners’ willingness to distribute their documents electronically. Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology is a key enabler for the distribution of digital content. DRM refers to protecting ownership/copyright of electronic content by restricting the extent of usage an authorized recipient is allowed in re- gard to that content. DRM technology has historically been viewed as the methodology for the protection of digital media copyrights. But DRM technology products can be leveraged to ad- dress much larger issues, including the control of rights and usage permissions of content and digital information. DRM presents the opportunity to package, price, distribute and sell content in many new ways that have never been possible before. -

"Will Merging Access Controls and Rights Controls Undermine The
WILL MERGING ACCESS CONTROLS AND RIGHTS CONTROLS UNDERMINE THE STRUCTURE OF ANTICIRCUMVENTION LAW? By R. Anthony Reese† ABSTRACT Copyright owners are increasingly using technological meas- ures, often referred to as “digital rights management” systems, to protect their works in digital formats. In 1998, Congress granted copyright owners legal remedies against the circumvention of such measures and against the suppliers of circumvention technologies. This Article considers how the complex structure of these legal protections might affect copyright owners’ choices of which tech- nological measures to deploy. Because Congress provided stronger protection to measures controlling access to copyrighted works than it provided to measures controlling copyright owners’ rights in those works, copyright owners might prefer access controls to rights controls. In practice, however, copyright owners may be able to employ technological protection systems that incorporate both an access control and a rights control. So far, courts have treated such “merged” control measures as entitled to the legal protections afforded both access-control and rights-control measures. The Ar- ticle next considers the impact on consumers of copyright owners’ use of merged control measures. Congress expressly provided less protection for rights controls in order to allow consumers to make noninfringing uses of copyrighted works in protected digital for- mat. By protecting merged control measures as both access con- trols and rights controls, courts may undermine this congressional scheme for balancing protections for copyright owners and the public’s interest in noninfringing use. Finally, the Article explores possible responses to the potential threat posed by the deployment of merged control measures, including amending the legal protec- tions for technological control measures to allow the circumven- © 2003 R. -
