French Senate to Vote on iTunes Amendment
An AP newswire article by Laurence Frost, via SFGate.com, reports that:
Apple Computer Inc. could negotiate new deals with record labels and artists to sidestep French government plans to open the copy-protection technology of its iTunes music service to rivals, under a draft Senate amendment to be voted on this week.More here.
The amendment, proposed by the Senate Cultural Affairs Committee, softens the terms of a government-backed copyright bill Apple criticized as "state-sponsored piracy" after its first reading in March by lawmakers in France's lower house.
