Book excerpt: Copyright law in the digital age refers to the set of legal rules and regulations that govern the use, protection, and ownership of digital content, such as music, movies, software, images, and text. In the digital age, copyright law has become more complex due to the ease of copying and distributing digital content. Digital technology has made it possible to create perfect copies of copyrighted works and distribute them across the internet with just a few clicks. This has led to widespread piracy and copyright infringement, which has raised significant legal and ethical concerns. To address these concerns, copyright laws in the digital age have been updated to provide greater protection for digital content and to address the unique challenges posed by digital technology. For example, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a framework for dealing with copyright infringement online, including provisions for notice and takedown of infringing content. Additionally, copyright laws in the digital age have expanded the rights of copyright owners to control the use of their works in the digital realm. For example, the rights of copyright owners to control the use of their works in the context of digital sampling, streaming, and distribution have been strengthened. Overall, copyright law in the digital age is a complex and rapidly evolving field that seeks to balance the interests of copyright owners, users, and the public while promoting innovation and creativity in the digital economy.
