On one hand I want to cheer since this is an example of David winning a small scuffle against Goliath.

But on the other hand, the legal tools being employed by David in this case are the same tools that Goliath uses to limit speech on the web today.

Let's not forget that the copyright system is an anachronism that needs to be dismantled/rebuilt to suit the modern world. Just because the result in this case leaves you satisfied doesn't mean that the system in its current form is unacceptable.

What is wrong with the system, and how should it be fixed? The main problem I see (other than the numbers of people breaking it) are copyright lengths.
