Abstract

In celebration of Canadian Music Week, the IP Osgoode Speaker Series presented a panel discussion on “Copyright and the Music Industry” featuring journalist/author Robert Levine and Brett Danaher, Assistant Professor of Economics at Wellesley College. Levine spoke about the current state of copyright and the public discourse surrounding it. He argued the need for more effective enforcement mechanisms for rights holders. Danaher explored one such enforcement mechanism as he presented statistics drawn from his research on the effect of France’s Hadopi anti-piracy laws on iTunes sales.
