And for an argDrument why Section 1008 does not apply to Napster and its
users, see --
       http://www.loc.gov/copyright/docs/napsteramicus.html

It's a friend of the court brief filed in Napster's appeal to the Tenth
Circuit by the Copyright Office and the Administration.

And the Tenth Circuit agreed, holding that "the Audio Home Recording Act
does not cover the downloading of MP3 files to computer hard drives."
