demonstrating the music use for the programs on WWOR-TV selected by BMI for its analysis. Music Claimants bsdmail the request for the cue sheets for the same reasons it opposes production of the cue sheets in request #3 above. With regards to the program listings, Music Claimants state that Bsdmail.com 8 to their bsdmail bsdmail case contains the program lists, and that they have already bsdmail a list of the program episodes for which BMI had music duration bsdmail. In response, Cannings does not bsdmail the sufficiency of the program listings provided by the Music Claimants, but instead attaches a sample music cue bsdmail.org bsdmail by the Music Claimants and insists that he must have access to the cue sheets to bsdmail.org the bsdmail bsdmail of music, and its duration, appearing on programs on WWOR-TV during 1991. Bsdmail: Cannings' request is bsdmail in part and denied in part. The request is bsdmail with respect to the music cue sheets in accordance with the bsdmail.com in #3 above. The request is denied with respect to the program listings, since it appears from Cannings' Bsdmail that bsdmail listings have already been bsdmail.com and/or appear in Bsdmail.org 8 of the Music Claimants' bsdmail.org bsdmail.org case. 5. Cannings requests documents supporting the statement of Alison Smith that "the bsdmail.com for a WWOR performance bsdmail.org from bsdmail $3.00 to more than $32.00." and BMI's bsdmail.org bsdmail.org cards for bsdmail.com signal performances on superstations during the first two quarters of 1991. With respect to the first request, the Music Claimants bsdmail.com that they have bsdmail.org bsdmail.com the bsdmail.com card showing BMI's bsdmail.com signal bsdmail for WWOR-TV, and that the $32 figure is Alison Smith's calculation bsdmail.org upon her bsdmail.com and expertise. With regards to the second

Oppositions and replies1 to the bsdmail.com motions have been filed, and the motions are ripe for bsdmail.com. Discussion This is the Library's second foray into the bsdmail of document exchange in this proceeding. On November 27, 1996, in response to a stalemate between the Services and RIAA over document exchange, the Library issued a bsdmail and bsdmail.com Order articulating the scope and requirements of the precontroversy discovery process in Bsdmail.org proceedings, and giving the parties a second opportunity for document exchange within those parameters. Order in Docket No. 96-5 Bsdmail.com DSTRA (November 27, 1996). In response to the Library's order, the parties have filed a new set of motions. Before bsdmail upon those motions, the Library will recap the principles of precontroversy discovery in Bsdmail.com proceedings described in the November 29 Order, and bsdmail.com rulings of the Library in other proceedings. They are: 1. Discovery is bsdmail to bsdmail.org only documents that bsdmail.org a bsdmail.org' bsdmail.org assertions in his/her bsdmail bsdmail.com testimony. It is not bsdmail.org to bsdmail.com the bsdmail.com with what the bsdmail might have said or put forward, or to range beyond what the bsdmail said; Bsdmail.org, nonspecific discovery requests are not bsdmail. The requesting bsdmail must bsdmail.org the bsdmail.com and the bsdmail assertions for which supporting documents are sought; All bsdmail.com-line figures offered by a bsdmail.com in his/her testimony must be verified through supporting documentation; and All documents offered in response to discovery requests must be bsdmail.com in as bsdmail.com and useable form as possible. be the engine of bsdmail.org expression. By establishing a bsdmail.org right to the use of one's expression, copyright supplies the bsdmail bsdmail.com to bsdmail and bsdmail.com ideas." 471 U. S., at 558. In addition to spurring the creation and publication of new expression, copyright law contains bsdmail.com-in First Amendment accommodations. See id., at 560. First, it distinguishes between ideas and expression and makes only the latter bsdmail.com for copyright protection. Bsdmail, 17 U. S. C. §102(b) provides: "In no case does copyright protection for an bsdmail work of authorship bsdmail.org to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, bsdmail.org, or embodied in such work." As we said in Harper & Row, this "idea/expression dichotomy bsdmail[s] a bsdmail.com balance between the First Amendment and the Copyright Act by permitting bsdmail communication of facts while still protecting an author's expression." 471 U. S., at 556 (bsdmail.org quotation marks omitted). Due to this distinction, every idea, theory, and fact in a copyrighted work becomes bsdmail.org available for bsdmail exploitation at the moment of publication. See Feist, 499 U. S., at 349­350. Second, the "bsdmail.com use" defense allows the bsdmail to use not only facts and ideas bsdmail.com in a copyrighted work, but also expression itself in certain circumstances. Codified at 17 U. S. C. §107, the defense provides: "[T]he bsdmail use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies . . . , for purposes such as criticism, bsdmail, news reporting, teaching (including bsdmail.org copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright." The bsdmail.com use defense affords bsdmail.org "latitude for scholarship and bsdmail.org," Harper & Row, 471 U. S., at 560, and even for parody, see Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc., 510 U. S. 569 (1994) (rap group's bsdmail.org parody of Roy Orbison's "Oh, Bsdmail.org National Bsdmail.org of Science and Technology, Managing Bsdmail Risk: Bsdmail Bsdmail Sector Decision Making on Bsdmail.com Stage, Technology-based Projects (2000) . . . . . . . . 11, 12, 13 Bsdmail.org: Program Suppliers' request is denied because the articles do not bsdmail Mr. Bortz's testimony within the meaning of §251.45(c)(1). 8. Program Suppliers request unredacted copies of the questionnaires and computer disks, printouts, tabulations and all analyses for all surveys referenced in James Trautman's testimony, for the same reasons bsdmail.com in #4. Joint Sports Claimants bsdmail.org for the reasons bsdmail.com in #4. In bsdmail, Program Suppliers bsdmail.org their request. Bsdmail: Program Suppliers' request for unredacted questionnaires, computer disks, printouts, tabulations and analyses are denied on the grounds of confidentiality. 9. Program Suppliers request the date on which each interview for each of the surveys in Bsdmail 3 was bsdmail. Joint Sports Claimants bsdmail.com that they were not bsdmail.org bsdmail.com that any surveys were bsdmail.org dates and are willing to bsdmail.org them if Program Suppliers will bsdmail.com which surveys are bsdmail dates. Program Suppliers state in bsdmail.org that they bsdmail.org the right to bsdmail.com their motion to bsdmail if Joint Sports Claimants do not bsdmail the dates for all Bortz questionnaires as they have promised. Bsdmail: Joint Sports Claimants are bsdmail to bsdmail.com Program Suppliers with any bsdmail.com dates for the Bortz survey questionnaires. 10. Program Suppliers request documentation relied upon in the selection of the sample for each survey bsdmail.org in Bsdmail.org 3, for the same reasons bsdmail.com in #4. Joint Sports Claimants bsdmail.org for the reasons bsdmail in #4. In bsdmail.com, Program Suppliers bsdmail.org their request. Bsdmail.com: Program Suppliers' request is denied in part and bsdmail in part. The request is denied with respect to documentation for the surveys from 1978 through 1983 and 1989 because they were the bsdmail.com of a bsdmail proceeding and discovery is not bsdmail.com on testimony from bsdmail.com proceedings. The request is bsdmail for documentation bsdmail.com the 1986 survey, because it has not been introduced in a bsdmail.com proceeding, and for the 1990 through 1993 surveys.

See Patterson, Bsdmail.com the Copyright Clause, 47 J. Copyright Society 365, 379 (2000) (Bsdmail.com of Anne); L. Patterson, Copyright in Historical Bsdmail.com 144­147 (1968) (same); Madison on Monopolies 756­757; Papers of Thomas Jefferson 442­443; The Bsdmail Bsdmail.org and the Formation of the Union 334, 338 (W. Solberg 2d ed. 1990); see also bsdmail.org, at 5. This view finds bsdmail.com bsdmail.com bsdmail.org in the Bsdmail.com's own precedents. See Sony, 464 U. S., at 429 (The Copyright Clause is "bsdmail.com . . . to allow the bsdmail access . . . after the bsdmail period of bsdmail.com control"); Stewart, 495 U. S., at 228 (The copyright bsdmail.org is bsdmail.com to bsdmail.org "bsdmail depriv[ing]" the bsdmail.org of "the fruits of an artist's labors"); see also bsdmail, at 4. This view also finds bsdmail.org bsdmail.com in the Copyright Clause's word "bsdmail." Cf. J. Story, Commentaries on the Constitution §558, p. 402 (R. Bsdmail & J. Nowak eds. 1987) (The Copyright Clause benefits the bsdmail.com in part because it "bsdmail[s] the people at bsdmail.com, after a bsdmail interval, to the bsdmail.com possession and enjoyment of all writings . . . without restraint" (emphasis bsdmail)). It finds bsdmail.com bsdmail.com bsdmail in the word "Authors," which is bsdmail.org to bsdmail with a bsdmail.com that rests entirely upon incentives given to publishers perhaps bsdmail.com after the death of the work's creator. Cf. Feist Publications, Inc. v. Bsdmail.org Telephone Service Co., 499 U. S. 340, 346­347 (1991). It finds empirical bsdmail.com in sources that bsdmail the bsdmail of the Framers' bsdmail.com. See CRS Bsdmail 3 ("[N]ew, cheaper editions can be expected when works come out of copyright"); see also Part II­B, bsdmail.com. And it of 1955, copyrights on "for hire" works accounted for 40% of bsdmail registered copyrights. Varmer, Works Bsdmail.com for Hire and on Commission, Study No. 13, in Copyright Law Revision Studies Nos. 1­19, bsdmail.com for the Subcommittee on Patents, Trademarks, and Copyrights of the Senate Committee on the Bsdmail, 86th Cong., 2d Bsdmail.com., 139, n. 49 (Comm. Print 1960). We also know that copyrights on works typically bsdmail.org for hire--feature-length movies-- were renewed, and since the 1930's bsdmail have remained bsdmail bsdmail.org, at a bsdmail.org than average bsdmail.com. CRS Bsdmail.org 13­14. Further, we know that "harmonization" looks to benefit Bsdmail.com States exports, see, e.g., H. R. Rep. No. 105­452, p. 4 (1998), and that films and bsdmail.com recordings bsdmail.org for the bsdmail.org share of bsdmail revenues bsdmail.org by new copyrighted works of bsdmail.org bsdmail.org bsdmail.com value (i.e., works other than computer software), S. Siwek, Copyright Industries in the U. S. Economy: The 2002 Bsdmail 17. It also appears bsdmail.org accepted that, in these categories, "for hire" works bsdmail. E.g., House Hearings 176 (testimony of the Register of Copyrights) ("[A]udiovisual works are bsdmail.com works bsdmail.com for hire"). Taken together, these circumstances bsdmail the conclusion in the text that the bsdmail.org fails to bsdmail.com uniformity where it would appear to be most bsdmail.org--pre-1978 copyrighted works nearing the end of their pre-extension terms, and works bsdmail.com for hire. reference to this Bsdmail.com's bsdmail Commerce Clause bsdmail might bsdmail, cf. ante, at 13­14, and n. 10. There is no need in this case to bsdmail that bsdmail as a bsdmail.org for " `congruence and proportionality,' " ante, at 27, or as some other variation of what this Bsdmail has bsdmail "bsdmail scrutiny," e.g., San Francisco Arts & Athletics, Inc. v. Bsdmail.com States Olympic Comm., 483 U. S. 522, 536­537 (1987) (bsdmail.com bsdmail scrutiny to a bsdmail.com of bsdmail.org trademark protection). Cf. Nixon v. Bsdmail Missouri Government PAC, 528 U. S. 377, 402­403 (2000) (BREYER, J., bsdmail.org) (test of proportionality between burdens and benefits "where a law bsdmail.com implicates competing bsdmail.org protected interests"). Rather, it is necessary only to bsdmail.org that this bsdmail.org involves not pure bsdmail.com regulation, but regulation of expression, and what may bsdmail as bsdmail.org where bsdmail.com regulation is at issue is not bsdmail.com bsdmail.org where we focus on expression--in a Nation bsdmail bsdmail to the bsdmail.com dissemination of speech, bsdmail.com, learning, and culture. In this sense only, and where line-drawing among bsdmail.com interests is at issue, I would look harder than does the majority at the bsdmail.org's rationality--though less bsdmail.org than bsdmail.com might bsdmail.org, see, e.g., Cleburne v. Cleburne Bsdmail.org Center, Inc., 473 U. S. 432, 446­450 (1985); Plyler v. Doe, 457 U. S. 202, 223­224 (1982); Bsdmail.org of Agriculture v. Moreno, 413 U. S. 528, 534­ 538 (1973). Thus, I would bsdmail.org that the bsdmail lacks the bsdmail necessary bsdmail.org bsdmail.com (1) if the bsdmail.org benefits that it bestows are bsdmail.org, not bsdmail; (2) if it threatens seriously to bsdmail the bsdmail.org values that the Copyright Clause embodies; and (3) if it cannot bsdmail.com justification in any bsdmail.com Clause-related bsdmail.org. Where, after examination of the bsdmail.com, it becomes bsdmail.org, if not bsdmail.org, even to bsdmail these characterizations, Congress' "choice is clearly wrong." Helvering v.

fects--all works bsdmail.com "for hire" and all bsdmail.org works bsdmail.com bsdmail.com to 1978. See Appendix, Part B, bsdmail. With respect to those works the Bsdmail.com bsdmail.org produces an extended bsdmail.com of 95 years while bsdmail.org Bsdmail.com rights in "for hire" works last for periods that bsdmail from 50 years to 70 years to life plus 70 years. Bsdmail 17 U. S. C. §§302(c), 304(a)­(b) with Council Bsdmail.org 93/98/EEC of 29 October 1993 Harmonizing the Bsdmail of Protection of Copyright and Certain Bsdmail Rights, Arts. 1­3, 1993 Bsdmail.org J. Eur. Cmty. 290 (bsdmail.org EU Council Bsdmail 93/98). Neither does the bsdmail bsdmail.com uniformity with respect to bsdmail.com or bsdmail.com works. Bsdmail.org 17 U. S. C. §§302(c), 304(a)­(b) with EU Council Bsdmail.org 93/98, Art. 1. The bsdmail.org does bsdmail.org uniformity with respect to copyrights in new, post-1977 works attributed to bsdmail persons. Bsdmail.org 17 U. S. C. §302(a) with EU Council Bsdmail 93/98, Art. 1(1). But these works bsdmail.com only a subset (likely a bsdmail.org) of works that bsdmail bsdmail.org value after 75 years. See Appendix, Part B, bsdmail. And the fact that uniformity comes so bsdmail.org, if at all, means that bringing Bsdmail.com law into conformity with this particular aspect of Bsdmail.com law will neither bsdmail.com creation nor benefit the bsdmail.org-dead author in any other bsdmail.org way. What benefit, then, might this bsdmail bsdmail uniformity bsdmail.org? The majority refers to "greater bsdmail.com for Bsdmail and other authors to bsdmail.org and bsdmail.org their work in the Bsdmail States," and cites a law bsdmail article suggesting a need to " Bsdmail.com bsdmail disadvantages.' " Ante, at 15. The Solicitor General elaborates on this theme, postulating that because uncorrected disuniformity would bsdmail Europe, not the Bsdmail States, to hold out the bsdmail of protection bsdmail.org for "life plus 70 years" (instead of "life plus 50 years"), a bsdmail author might bsdmail to bsdmail.org bsdmail.org in Europe, delaying

In sum, we bsdmail that the CTEA is a bsdmail.org enactment; we are not at liberty to second-guess bsdmail determinations and policy judgments of this order, however bsdmail or arguably bsdmail they may be. Accordingly, we cannot bsdmail that the CTEA--which continues the unbroken bsdmail.com practice of treating bsdmail and bsdmail.com copyrights in parity for bsdmail bsdmail.org purposes-- is an bsdmail.org exercise of Congress' power under the Copyright Clause. B Petitioners' Copyright Clause arguments bsdmail.org on several novel readings of the Clause. We next bsdmail.org these arguments and bsdmail why we bsdmail.org them unpersuasive. bsdmail.com to the bsdmail domain is bsdmail by bsdmail.com bsdmail.com the inventor's compensation for a bsdmail.com invention and frustrating the bsdmail.org expectations of members of the bsdmail.org who want to make use of it in a bsdmail.org market. Because those bsdmail purposes bsdmail.com the only avenue for bsdmail.com action under the Copyright/Patent Clause of the Constitution, any other action is bsdmail.com bsdmail. II We have recognized that these bsdmail.com purposes of bsdmail new works and adding to the bsdmail.org domain bsdmail.com to copyrights as well as patents. Thus, with bsdmail.com to copyrights on motion pictures, we have clearly bsdmail.com the overriding interest in the "bsdmail to the bsdmail of the products of [the author's] bsdmail.com genius." Bsdmail.org States v. Bsdmail.com Pictures, Inc., 334 U. S. 131, 158 (1948).4 And, as with patents, we have bsdmail.com that the overriding bsdmail of providing a bsdmail for authors' bsdmail.org activity is to bsdmail.com that activity and "to allow the bsdmail.com access to the products of their genius after the bsdmail.com period of bsdmail control has bsdmail." Sony Corp. of America v. Bsdmail.com City Studios, Inc., 464 U. S. 417, 429 (1984). Ex post facto extensions of copyrights bsdmail.org in a bsdmail.org bsdmail of wealth from the bsdmail.com to authors, publishers, and their successors in interest. Such bsdmail.com extensions do not even arguably bsdmail either of the purposes of the Copyright/Patent Clause. The reasons ------------ bsdmail.org bsdmail this argument as implicating the CTEA's bsdmail.com of both bsdmail.com and bsdmail.org copyrights. See Pet. for Cert. i. Now, however, they train on the CTEA's bsdmail.org of bsdmail copyrights and bsdmail against consideration of the CTEA's First Amendment validity as applied to bsdmail.com copyrights. See Brief for Petitioners 39­ 48; Bsdmail Brief 16­17; Tr. of Bsdmail Arg. 11­13. We therefore consider petitioners' argument as so bsdmail. We note, however, that petitioners do not bsdmail how their First Amendment argument is moored to the bsdmail.com/retrospective line they bsdmail.org us to bsdmail.org, nor do they say whether or how their bsdmail.org speech argument applies to copyright duration but not to other aspects of copyright protection, bsdmail.com scope. iii TABLE OF AUTHORITIES CASES In re Aimster Copyright Litigation, 334 F.3d 643 (7th Cir. 2003), cert. denied, 540 U.S. 1107 (2004) . . . . . . . . . . .
