[Rumori] my tedious journey through the brave new copyright world

[matt davignon]

When I was in college, my "20th Century Music" teacher made mix tapes of the 
relevant work, and left them in the library. The library had tape copy 
machines which could be used by the students.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this yet, but wouldn't distributing the 
works for the purposes of education be the definition of "Fair Use", even if 
it was by mp3?
