Quick Glance: Internet Archive Loses Appeal on E-Book Lending
- The Second Circuit Court ruled that the Internet Archive's e-book lending violates copyright law and is not considered transformative use.
- Judge Beth Robinson noted that the IA's digital copies serve the same purpose as the originals and offer no new content.
- The court rejected IA's claim that its lending did not harm the market, agreeing with publishers that IA's offerings directly compete with their e-books.
- While the court found that IA does not profit directly from lending, it upheld a ruling that permanently bars IA from distributing e-books.
