It's interesting reading, and if you look closely at the details, you'll see there are some aspects of this that might be easier for a court to base its decision on than the First Amendment/fair use questions being discussed in this thread.  |
actually if you read the filing it perfect for the first ammendment /fair use arguements made here
from the fact
- that the music is contextually relevent to the story (i kissed the girl)
- they only use it in that context and avoid using the music in the preview promo clips
- use only title only promotion of the music (ala lenz vs universal)
- and that the industry refuses to licience it to hard core (censorship vs income protection)
it almost a perfect fit.
