Abstract
Fred von Lohmann is literally one of those special voices who needs no introduction. Agree with him, think his views extreme, or fall anywhere in between, one can still not help but respect and be thoughtfully engaged by his comprehensive and careful views on the proper scope and structure of federal copyright law. Join us in this podcast as Fred and moderator Doug Lichtman engage a group of UCLA law students in a wide-ranging conversation about the Cablevision case, third-party liability, and copyright law’s struggle to simultaneously encourage authorship while leaving adequate flexibility for disruptive technologies.
