Legal Issues Facing Companies with Products in a Digital Format
Abstract
Companies that deal in products in a digital format, such as magazines, newspapers, e-books, music, movies, games, or software, face unique legal challenges because they attempt to earn a profit by selling or licensing material that is easily copied and inexpensive to reproduce. This chapter discusses the four general categories of intellectual property law—patents, trade secrets, trademarks, and copyrights—and describes how each applies to products in a digital format. This chapter ends with a brief discussion of the changing societal norms toward copyright infringement for digital products and possible directions for future research.
