Description:
This group organized in response to the recording industry's growing use of encryption and copyright law changes to prevent any copying (including fair use copying) of music CDs (compact discs). They are "advocating a Consumer Technology Bill of Rights that will positively assert a consumer's rights to fair use." The Web site provides background material on the law, proposed legislation, and what consumers can do about it.
