From: Kevin Smith <[log in to unmask]> Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2014 21:00:11 +0000 In the original decision favoring fair use, the District Court also said the copying was not transformative. And like the district court, the Court of Appeals held that the first fair use factor still favored fair use, even though transformation was not found. On this point the two courts seem to agree. It looks to me, and I am also still reading, like the fair use analysis has gotten stricter under the Eleventh Circuit's rules on remand, but there is still room for fair use. The Court did not grant the injunction the publishers were asking for, and on remand I would still except a "split decision". Still, the split between fair uses and infringing ones will probably be less tilted toward fair use. Kevin L. Smith, J.D.
