As reported by Reuters, the Copyright Office' released its report on first 
sale and archival copying today.

The report:

doesn't appear to think that anticircumvention poses a problem for first 
sale, but has some concerns about calling buffered streaming audio a 
copy.  Several dvd-discussants submitted comments that were considered in 
the report.
