This article by Siva Vaidhyanathan, associate professor of culture and communication at New York University, gives a good overview of American copyright law. The article is aimed at journalists, but is easy to understand and a good introduction to how recent changes in techonology and copyright law are intersecting.

Tip of the hat to Genie Tyburski at the Virtual Chase.
