Yeah, yeah, same old, same old.

If it's not "Look! Pirates! We're all going to die!!! We need to strengthen copyright NOW!"

Then it's: "Ouch! I lost a copyright lawsuit! We're all going to die!!! WHO is responsible for this insanity?"

I don't think the scenarios are all that similar.

The first is about taking a precise and full replica of a copyrighted work and putting it on a file sharing system.

The second is about borrowing, perhaps heavily, from a copyrighted work to create a derivative work.

I don't think it's necessarily inconsistent to consider the first infringement and the second fair use.

Not all same old!

Same old = copyright laws are broken

New = this decision makes it even further broken

Same old = copyright laws are getting more and more broken
