MGM vs. P2P Developers

TelecomWeb: Apparently things are heating up as we move closer to the Supreme Court Case scheduled for the end of this month....."Attorneys for Grokster and StreamCast as well as representatives of advocacy groups Public Knowledge, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), the Consumer Federation of America, the Consumer Electronics Association and the Computer and Communications Industry Association yesterday led a 90-minute press conference in Washington, DC to blast the MGM petition. EEF has seemingly led the charge against MGM with an amicus brief at the Supreme Court, but the session revealed that large numbers of such positions were being filed, including by individual academic experts."  I wonder if Sony's lawyers used the same argument then too - policy shifts on such matters are supposed to be the prerogative of the U.S. Congress and not the courts :)
