A Primer On U.S. Intellectual Property Rights Applicable To Music Information Retrieval Systems, Michael W. Carroll

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Digital technology has had a significant impact on the ways in which music information can be stored, transmitted, and used. Within the information sciences, music information retrieval has become an increasingly important and complex field. This brief article is addressed primarily to those involved in the design and implementation of systems for storing and retrieving digital files containing musical notation, recorded music, and relevant metadata – hereinafter referred to as a Music Information Retrieval System (“MIRS”). In particular, this group includes information specialists, software engineers, and the attorneys who advise them. Although peer-to-peer computer applications, such as Napster’s MusicShare or …

Homicide On Holiday: Prosecutorial Discretion, Popular Culture, And The Boundaries Of The Criminal Law, Carolyn B. Ramsey

Publications

This article discusses prosecutors' discretion to press criminal charges against individuals who cause death during recreational activities. Based on newspaper sources, published opinions, and unpublished materials from cases that resulted in plea bargains, Homicide on Holiday continues the author's exploration of the relationship between the American public, criminal prosecutors, and the nature of the prosecutors' public role. It shows that, despite popular culture's glorification of risk and a nationwide trend in tort law toward sheltering sports co-participants from civil negligence liability, an exhilarating trip down a ski slope is increasingly likely to land a skier in jail if he collides …

Business, The Arts & The Role Of The Copyright Act, Keith C. Hauprich

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

Two recent court decisions examined, addressed, and adjudicated parallel issues potentially determining the scope of rights of legions of recording artists and freelance authors. While the core of each case centered on the fact that the agreements between each of the respective litigants did not expressly grant (or reserve) the exercise of the particular rights in dispute, the decisions of the courts have seemingly antithetical results. A review of each court's application of the governing law to the disparate facts of each case presents an interesting illustration of the relationship among business, the arts, and the role of the Copyright …

Long Overdue? An Exploration Of The Status And Merit Of A General Public Performance Right In Sound Recordings, Matthew S. Delnero

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

In the sound recording performance rights debate, positions advocated by broadcasters are the polar opposite of those taken by recording artists and labels. Considering all the factors, it is likely that neither claim is entirely meritorious. Both are too extreme to be supported by available evidence. Radio broadcasters ignore what would amount to at least some international harmonization and added foreign royalties, as well as the potential creation of new works that would not be economically viable without a performance royalty. Furthermore, broadcasters fail to adequately account for the possible inequity of granting performance royalties to those who compose music …

The Balance Between Recording Artists And Recording Companies: A Tip In Favor Of The Artists?, Nicholas Baumgartner

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

To protest the 1999 Copyright Act amendment, recording artists Don Henley and Sheryl Crow, among others, co-founded the RAC. While formed to serve as a "voice for artists' rights," the primary impetus behind its founding was to lobby Congress to delete sound recordings from the definition of "works made for hire" in the Copyright Act. Together with intense lobbying by AFTRA, individual recording artists and legal scholars, the RAC succeeded--in October 2000, sound recordings were removed from the definition of "works made for hire."

The momentum gained by artists in this lobbying effort inspired an attack on the other proverbial …
