But it seems to me that this pushes the weight in favor of Zediva, since it's only using a "single copy" as well -- a single copy of the DVD. That would suggest an even stronger argument that the transmission is not to the public -- only one subscriber can view each copy at one time at their single location. How can you twist that into claiming it's a "public performance"?
Honestly, the real issue here is the very nature of copyright law itself, which is patched up with duct tape each time some new technology hits the market. The internet has merged together a variety of these technologies into one, so different parts of the law are clashing, and out of it we're getting ridiculous decisions like this, which only serve to show how broken copyright law is. When the real result of a lawsuit depends entirely on the length of a cable, the law is fundamentally broken.226 Comments
