Dear all
The European Parliament is set to vote on whether to double the term of
copyright in sound recordings. Please register your concern at an event on
the proposed Term Extension Directive, on Tuesday 27 January 2009 in the
European Parliament in Brussels:
http://soundcopyright.eventbrite.com/
This flawed Directive has been unanimously condemned by Europe's leading
intellectual property research centres. The European Parliament must address
the mounting concerns of consumer groups and copyright users if they want a
modern, workable copyright policy. Please, if you can, come to Brussels and
register your concern.
If you can't make it, please forward this mail to your MEP (you can get
their contact details here:
http://www.laquadrature.net/wiki/Political_Memory), and ask them to:
*Strongly oppose this legislation
*Attend the 27 January event on your behalf
*Sign the Sound Copyright petition (http://www.soundcopyright.eu/petition)
*Watch the Open Rights Groups' cartoon "How copyright term extension in
Sound Recordings actually works"
