Digital technology has forever changed the way media is created,
accessed, shared and regulated, raising serious questions about
copyright for artists and fans, media companies and internet
intermediaries, activists and governments. Taking a rounded view of
the debates that have emerged over copyright in the digital age,
this book: Looks across a broad range of industries including
music, television and film to consider issues of media power and
policy. Features engaging examples that have taken centre stage in
the copyright debate, including high profile legal cases against
Napster and The Pirate Bay, anti-piracy campaigns, the Creative
Commons movement, and public protests against the expansion of
copyright enforcement. Considers both the dominant voices, such as
industry associations, and those who struggle to be heard,
including ordinary media users, drawing on important studies into
copyright from around the world. Offering media students and
scholars a comprehensive overview of the contemporary issues
surrounding intellectual property through the struggle over
copyright, Understanding Copyright explores why disagreement is
rife and how the policymaking process might accommodate a wider
range of views.
