Kevin Michael Grace concludes, “When the entertainment industry went digital, it made not only the old technology obsolete but also the old copyright law.”
Although Mr. Grace covers a variety of interesting thoughts in the article, I fail to see how copyright law is invalidated simply by virtue of the existence of a new method of delivery. For example: In the past, if one chose to steal printed material by hand copying the content with a fountain pen, would that copyright suddenly become obsolete as more efficient methods of copying (such as photocopy machines) become available?
