Technological possibility is triggering a creative tsunami, as scholar Henry Jenkins has noted. Yesterday's fan culture is now today's popular culture. Look at the many homemade variations on the "Saturday Night Live" appearance by Justin Timberlake singing "Dick in a Box" ("Box in a Box," "Puppet Dick in a Box"). That's not stopping copyright holders from trying to kill it, possibly by accident. Content providers worried about piracy and theft, like NBC Universal and Viacom, are working out deals with online video providers like Veoh and MySpace, for specialized filters and software to identify copyrighted material. These niters will "take down" videos that are copies of copyrighted material. The trouble is, nobody has figured out how to protect online videos that use copyrighted mater...

A copyright system is designed to produce an ecology that nurtures the creation, dissemination, and enjoyment of works of authorship. When it works well, it encourages creators to generate new works, assists intermediaries in disseminating them widely, and supports readers, listeners, and viewers in enjoying them. If the system poses difficult entry barriers to creators, imposes demanding impediments on intermediaries, or inflicts burdensome conditions and hurdles on readers, then the system fails to achieve at least some of its purposes.

What do Columbia, Vanderbilt, Duke and UCLA have in common? Apparently, they aren't expelling enough students for illegally swapping music and movies, according to leaders of Congress. The House committees responsible for copyright and education wrote a joint letter May 1 scolding the presidents of 19 major American universities, demanding that each school respond to a six- page questionnaire detailing steps it has taken to curtail illegal music- and movie-file-sharing on campus.
