Why Copyright Today Threatens Intellectual Freedom

"NEW REPORT ON COPYRIGHT & FREE EXPRESSION - Music swapping --
encryption -- the frozen public domain -- where should we draw the
line between rewarding creativity through the copyright system and
society's competing interest in the free flow of ideas? Check out
the Free Expression Policy Project's newest policy report,
"The Progress of Science and Useful Arts": Why Copyright Today
Threatens Intellectual Freedom.
It covers "fair use," copyright term extension, the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act, and much more -- without legalese."
