There is an interesting Blog in the Guardian online titled "Behind the music: Why artists mustn't be drawn into an MP3 site's legal fight" which marries up the right of termination being actively pursued by a number of musicians and songwriters to reclaim copyrights from record labels and music publishers in the USA (the right to reclaim recordings 35 years old - notice must be filed within two years of the termination date) and the legality of so called digital cloud lockers - in particular EMI's claim against web entrepreneur Michael Robertson's MP3Tunes. Its all on the Guardian here
In 1709 the Statute of Anne created the first purpose-built copyright law. This blog, founded just 303 short and unextended years later, is dedicated to all things copyright, warts and all. To contact the 1709 Blog, email Jeremy here
