Music Law Updates

The IPKat has just been admiring Music Law Updates, a website run by Charming Music Limited and edited by barrister Ben Challis with contributions from solicitors Jenna Bruce and Jamie Barnard, Jonathan Coad and Andrew Evans.

The site, which has archival material dating back to December 2002, contains not just obvious music law news but comments on cases from outside the normal range of music law sources but which have an impact on music law, such as Arsenal v Reed. Ben Challis acts as General Counsel for 3A Entertainments and is Executive Producer for television of the Glastonbury Festival, so he should know a fair bit about mud.

Ben can be contacted at musiclaw01@aol.com.


Miracle Cure for copyright infringement?

The latest developments in the saga of artist Ed Miracle's battle against the publishing industry, following an egregious outbreak of something apparently closely resembling copyright infringement, can be read in today's blog posted on Human Law by Justin Patten, Mr Miracle's UK lawyer.


It's going a bit quiet ...

Does anyone know if the following weblogs, which are of interest to intellectual property/infotech law enthusiasts, are still active?

* Strange Brand (nothing posted since 10 December 2005).

* Spicy IP from India (silent since 5 January 2006).

* From Bricks to Clicks (just one post since December 2005).

The IPKat hopes his IP blogging buddies are okay. He visits them sometimes for inspiration - and sometimes just to reassure himself that he's not alone.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
