This episode of Legal Lucidity is an update on recent changes and trends in copyright law. Even if you don't think of yourself as an artist or creator, every business is making works that are copyrightable, even if it is just your logo and your website marketing copy. Here we are talking about recent cases, including Google vs Oracle, the Katy Perry "Dark Horse" case, and the case about Warhol's Prince silkscreen.
