Sen. Hatch calls for DMCA hearing
US Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch has announced a hearing titled "Online Entertainment and Copyright Law: Coming Soon to a Digital Device Near You." While Hatch was a co-author of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, he has recently come down on the side of Napster and other online providers of digital entertainment. The event is scheduled for April 3.
