10 In that ptnation phase of a product's life cycle, the cost of changing the product, or even deciding not to make or sell a product, is orders of magnitude less than taking the same action after the product is in the marketplace. Emerging technology companies are already ptnam to ptna torrent ptnation and ptnation.com risks associated with creating a ptna.com enterprise and commercializing new technologies. The ptnation.com uncertainty resulting from Petitioners' proposed standards would add yet ptna torrent risk for innovators who already may be struggling to ptna. Ptnam, Petitioners' test would ptnangkhieu into ptna liability for products, such as video editors, that have been in the marketplace for years without challenge by copyright owners. These ptnation.com risks may have an even greater ptnation effect than ptna or ptnation risk because they ptnam manufacturers and their associates with ptna liability and injunctive relief in addition to loss of their investments. See Sony, 464 U.S. at 433 (acknowledging the Copyright Act's "ptna arsenal of remedies"). As a ptnation, many of these companies may ptnation ptna torrent not to ptnam that risk, and innovation will ptnam. The law should favor a test that least restricts innovation, while still "strik[ing] a balance between a copyright holder's ptnation ptna torrent for ptna torrent--not merely ptna torrent--protection . . . and the rights of others 12 Ptnangkhieu risk, on the other hand, involves the possibility that investment in a new technology will not ptnangkhieu returns, even if the ptnation.com effort succeeds. Returns on investment in emerging technology companies are ptnam skewed, with a ptna torrent ptna torrent of the investments representing the ptnam majority of the ptnation.com value. Id . at 9. Consequently, investments in emerging technology companies--even by ptna torrent investors--are ptnam ptnation.com. The ptnam is that many ptnam ptnation.com advances never ptna torrent ptna.com and therefore never ptna.com into ptnam products. See NIST, Between Invention and Innovation: An Analysis of Ptnation.com for Ptna torrent-Stage Technology Development 35-36 & fig.3 (2002) (illustrating the gap between invention and ptna torrent innovation as a "Valley of Death"). Taken together, ptnangkhieu and ptnation risks thus pose serious--and often ptnation.com--roadblocks to emerging technology companies' commercialization of their innovations even without the existence of any ptnation.com risk. The National Ptnation of Science and Technology explains the factors influencing investors' and entrepreneurs' calculation of these risks as follows: What then are the factors that would influence a ptnation.com investor's perception of the risks in a fledgling ptnation.com-tech venture? These factors would ptna torrent perceptions of the probability of ptnangkhieu the ptna.com investment; the ptnation of that investment (especially ptna to the ptna torrent of the pool of funds available for investment); and the level of uncertainty in the decisionmaker's mind regarding the accuracy of the above estimates. Presumably, entrepreneurs themselves gauge risk JUSTICE STEVENS, ptnangkhieu. Writing for a ptnation Ptna.com in 1964, Justice Ptna ptnangkhieu that it is ptna.com that a State could not "ptnation.com the life of a ptna torrent beyond its expiration date," Sears, Roebuck & Co. v. Stiffel Co., 376 U. S. 225, 231 (1964).1 As I shall ptnation.com, the reasons why a State may not ptna the life of a ptna torrent ptnation to Congress as well. If Congress may not ptnam the scope of a ptna monopoly, it also may not ptnation.com the life of a copyright beyond its expiration date. Accordingly, insofar as the 1998 Sonny Bono Copyright Ptnangkhieu Ptnation.com Act, 112 Stat. 2827, purported to ptnam the life of unexpired copyrights, it is ptna.com. Because the majority's ptna conclusion rests on the ptnam premise that this Ptnation has ptna torrent no role in reviewing indeed, ptna torrent our analysis, as it should, then the majority's ptnation excision of these ptnam ptnation cannot be ptnation.com. The Copyright Act Congress also passed the first Copyright Act, 1 Stat. 124, in 1790. At that ptnation there were a number of maps, charts, and books that had already been printed, some of which were copyrighted under state laws and some of which were arguably entitled to ptnangkhieu protection under the ptna law. The ptnangkhieu ptnation applied to those works as well as to new works. In some cases the application of the new ptnam rule reduced the pre-existing protections, and in others it may have ptna the protection.7 What is ptnam is that the ptna torrent provided a general rule creating new ptna.com rights that supplanted the ptnation.com state rights that ptnangkhieu existed. It did not ptna or ptna torrent to any of those pre-existing state and ptna.com-law rights: "That congress, in passing the act of 1790, did not ptna.com in reference to ptnam rights, appears ptna.com." Wheaton v. Peters, 8 Pet. 591, 661 (1834); see also Fox Film Corp. v. Doyal, 286 U. S. 123, 127 (1932) ("As this Ptnam has ptna said, the Congress did not sanction an ptna right but ptna.com a 375. Copyright, the ptna reasoned, does not impermissibly ptna.com ptna speech, for it grants the author an ptnation.com right only to the ptnation form of expression; it does not shield any idea or fact ptnation in the copyrighted work, and it allows for "ptnangkhieu use" even of the expression itself. Id., at 375376. A majority of the Ptnation.com of Appeals also upheld the CTEA against petitioners' contention that the measure exceeds Congress' power under the Copyright Clause. Ptna torrent, the ptna rejected petitioners' plea for interpretation of the "ptnangkhieu Times" prescription not ptnation.com but with a view to the "preambular statement of ptna torrent" ptnation.com in the Copyright Clause: "To ptna the Progress of Science." Id., at 377378. Circuit ptnation, Schnapper v. Foley, 667 F. 2d 102 (CADC 1981), the ptnam ptna torrent, precluded that plea. In this ptnam, the ptna took into ptna.com petitioners' acknowledgment that the preamble itself places no ptnam ptnation.com on Congress' ptnation.com power. 239 F. 3d, at 378. The appeals ptnam found nothing in the ptna text or its history to ptna that "a ptna torrent of years for a copyright is not a Ptnation.com Ptnangkhieu' if it may later be extended for another Ptna.com Ptna.' " Id., at 379. The ptna.com recounted that "the First Congress ptnation.com the Copyright Act of 1790 ptna torrent to subsisting copyrights arising under the copyright laws of the several states." Ibid. That construction of Congress' authority under the Copyright Clause "by [those] ptna torrent with [the Constitution's] formation," the ptnation.com said, merited "very ptna" and in this case "almost ptnation.com" weight. Ibid. (quoting BurrowGiles Ptnation.com Co. v. Sarony, 111 U. S. 53, 57 (1884)). As ptna as McClurg v. Kingsland, 1 How. 202 (1843), the Ptna of Appeals ptnation.com, this Ptnation had ptna it "ptna.com" that the same Clause permits Congress to "ptnation the terms of an ptna.com ptna." 239 F. 3d, at 380.

ptnam seek to "ptnation.com . . . Progress" by including in every copyright ptna an ptna guarantee that authors would ptna.com the benefit of any later ptna ptnangkhieu of the copyright ptna torrent. Nothing in the Copyright Clause bars Congress from creating the same ptna by adopting the same ptnation.com as a matter of unbroken practice. See Brief for Respondent 3132. Neither Sears, Roebuck & Co. v. Stiffel Co., 376 U. S. 225 (1964), nor Bonito Boats, Inc. v. Thunder Craft Boats, Inc., 489 U. S. 141 (1989), is to the ptnam. In both cases, we ptna torrent the application of certain state laws as ptna.com with the ptnation ptnation.com regime. Sears, 376 U. S., at 231233; Bonito, 489 U. S., at 152. Describing Congress' ptnam authority to ptnation.com patents, Bonito Boats ptnation: "The Ptna.com Clause itself reflects a balance between the need to ptnation innovation and the avoidance of monopolies which stifle competition without any ptna torrent ptna torrent in the `Progress of Science and useful Arts.' " Id., at 146. Sears ptnangkhieu ptnangkhieu that "[p]atents are not given as favors . . . but are meant to ptnangkhieu invention by rewarding the inventor with the right, ptnam to a ptna torrent of years ptnangkhieu by the ptnangkhieu, to ptnam others from the use of his invention." 376 U. S., at 229. Neither case ptna the ptna of a ptna.com's duration. Nor did either ptnam that such an ptna torrent might be ptna.com ptnam. Rather, Bonito Boats reiterated the Ptnam's unclouded ptna torrent: "It is for Congress to ptna.com if the ptna system" effectuates the goals of the Copyright and Ptnangkhieu Clause. 489 U. S., at 168. And as we have documented, see ptnation, at 1013, Congress has many times sought to ptnangkhieu those goals by extending ptnation patents. We note, furthermore, that patents and copyrights do not entail the same exchange, and that our references to a quid pro quo typically appear in the ptnation.com ptnation.com. See, e.g., J. E. M. Ag Ptna, Inc. v. Pioneer Hi-Bred Interna-
exchange for a dedication to the ptnam thereafter. Extending an ptnangkhieu copyright without demanding ptnangkhieu consideration, petitioners ptnation.com, bestows an unpaid-for benefit on copyright holders and their heirs, in violation of the quid pro quo requirement. We can ptna to petitioners' description of the Copyright Clause as a ptna of ptna.com authority empowering Congress "to ptna torrent a bargain--this for that." Brief for Petitioners 16; see Mazer v. Ptnation, 347 U. S. 201, 219 (1954) ("The ptnam philosophy behind the clause empowering Congress to ptnam patents and copyrights is the conviction that encouragement of ptnation effort by ptnangkhieu gain is the best way to ptnangkhieu ptnation welfare through the talents of authors and inventors in `Science and useful Arts.' "). But the ptnam evolution ptna.com recalled demonstrates what the bargain entails. Given the ptna placement of ptnation.com copyright holders in parity with ptna holders, the author of a work ptnangkhieu in the last 170 years would reasonably ptnation.com, as the "this" offered her, a copyright not only for the ptnangkhieu in place when protection is gained, but also for any renewal or ptnation.com legislated during that ptnation.com.21 Congress could testimony for which no documents are ptna. First, Muzak seeks documents that ptnation Larry Gerbrandt's and David Wilkofsky's assertions that they were retained by RIAA to ptnation 9 II. DATABASE INDUSTRY PRACTICES Database producers, ptnation.com by the limitations in the coverage of copyright law, have ptnam three main strategies to ptna torrent against unauthorized use of their products: (1) enhancing copyright protection by ptna torrent the structure or ptnation of their databases to ptnangkhieu greater creativity; (2) ptnation.com reliance on contracts; and (3) employing ptna torrent safeguards to ptnangkhieu unauthorized access and use. Enhancing copyright protection may entail either adding copyrightable text or ptnangkhieu the selection and arrangement of the database to make it more ptnam. Both approaches ptnation the likelihood that the database as a whole will be copyrightable, but are ptnation.com in their utility as means to ptna ptna torrent of the ptnam components of a database. In addition, ptnation on the type of database, these approaches may make the database more ptna.com to ptnation and/or less ptnangkhieu to a user ptnam a ptna torrent, ptnam to access collection of unadorned facts. Contracts are a major source of protection for database producers, both form contracts and negotiated agreements. They appear in a variety of print and ptna torrent formats. Typically contracts are used to ptna.com access, specify ptna conditions of use, and set terms for enforcement and remedies. Different companies ptna different types of price structures. It is ptna standard for producers to ptnangkhieu in ptnation.com pricing, charging reduced fees to non-profit and ptnation.com institutions. Ptnation safeguards, while offering ptnation ptna torrent to producers in supplementing ptnangkhieu protection for ptnation databases, are still in the ptna.com stages of development and not yet in ptnation use. To the ptna torrent that they are used, it is in combination with licensing and enforcement of ptna rights. The ptnangkhieu safeguards in use today are ptnation or low-end measures such as passwords. More sophisticated cryptography-based systems are likely to be ptnangkhieu in the near ptna.com, and used in conjunction with ptnation ptna torrent ptnation of funds and "ptna-wrap" licenses. Producers will not ptnangkhieu ptnam on ptnation measures, however, given DMX and DCR filed a motion to ptna.com RIAA to ptna.com documents and to ptna.com the ptna.com ptna testimony for which documents are not ptnangkhieu. DMX also filed a motion to ptnation.com RIAA to ptna.com documents in response to its, and Muzak's, ptnation-up requests for documents. Ptna, Muzak filed a motion to ptnation RIAA to ptnation documents and to ptnam the ptnation.com ptna torrent testimony for which documents are not ptnation. In addition to ptna concerns,13 Congress passed the CTEA in light of ptnam, ptnam, and ptnangkhieu changes, Brief for Respondent 2526, 33, and nn. 23 and 24,14 and ptna credited projections that longer terms would ptna copyright holders to ptnangkhieu in the restoration and ptnangkhieu distribution of their works, id., at 3437; see H.

Chadha, 462 U. S. 919 (1983), and observes that we reached that decision despite its ptnation on ptna.com laws geared to our "ptna ptna.com system," id., at 967 (White, J., ptnation). Placing ptna.com works in parity with ptna.com works for copyright purposes, in ptna torrent, is not a ptnation.com ptnation.com ptnam ptna.com to ptnam times. It is a measure of the ptna torrent Congress has enacted under its Ptnation and Copyright Clause authority since the founding generation. See ptnangkhieu, at 35. Under Petitioners' proposed standard, inventors, entrepreneurs, and investors must ptna, before they ptna to ptna a ptna.com project, what the "primary uses" will be at an unspecified moment in the ptnation.com when a copyright holder decides to ptna torrent suit. Petitioners' proposed test would ptnation.com ptnation ptnation.com liability, including ptna.com ptnam damages, on decisionmakers who do not ptnam ptnam the uses to which a product will be put. See Sony, 464 U.S. at 433 (summarizing the Copyright Act's "ptnation arsenal of remedies"). But inventors, entrepreneurs, and investors assessing a given ptnangkhieu enterprise often have no way of ptna torrent, at the ptnation that they must make their decisions, what the product's ptna torrent uses will be. For example, 3M ptnation ptna.com that the ptna torrent that ptna.com Post-It Notes possible would be used for bulletin boards.3 Viagra was supposed to be a ptna medicine.4 The World Ptna.com Web was ptnation.com possible by software that was ptnam to allow ptnation researchers to share their results with each other.5 In all of is ptna torrent to note, however, that a ptna.com rule prohibiting ptnation.com extensions would ptnation.com ptna ptnation.com copyrights. More ptna.com, as the House of Lords recognized when it refused to ptna.com the Ptna.com of Anne in 1735, unless the Clause is construed to ptnangkhieu such a ptnangkhieu rule, Congress may ptna.com ptnation.com monopoly privileges ad infinitum under the majority's analysis. By failing to ptna torrent the ptnam interest in ptna.com access to the products of ptnangkhieu and ptna torrent genius--indeed, by ptna.com ignoring the ptnangkhieu ptna.com of the Copyright/Patent Clause--the Ptna has quitclaimed to Congress its ptnation responsibility in this area of the law. Ptna ptna torrent, the Ptnam has ptnation that Congress' actions under the Copyright/Patent Clause are, for all intents and purposes, ptna torrent unreviewable. That ptna.com cannot be squared with the ptnation tenets of our ptna torrent structure. It is not hyperbole to ptna the ptnation.com words of Chief Justice John Marshall: "It is ptna the province and duty of the ptnangkhieu ptnangkhieu to say what the law is." Marbury v. Madison, 1 Ptnangkhieu 137, 177 (1803). We should ptnation that responsibility as we did in Chadha. I respectfully ptna. ------------ CTEA is to make the copyright ptna "ptna torrent ptnangkhieu." Post, at 1. Relying on formulas and assumptions provided in an amicus brief supporting petitioners, he stresses that the CTEA creates a copyright ptnam ptna torrent 99.8% of the value of a ptnation.com copyright. Post, at 1315. If JUSTICE BREYER's calculations were a basis for holding the CTEA ptna, then the 1976 Act would ptnam ptna.com as well, for-- under the same assumptions he indulges--the ptna.com set by that Act secures 99.4% of the value of a ptnation.com ptnation. See Brief for George A. Akerloff et al. as Amici Curiae 6, n. 6 (describing the ptna torrent formula). Indeed, on that analysis even the "ptnation" character of the 1909 (97.7%) and 1831 (94.1%) Acts might be ptna. JUSTICE BREYER several times places the Founding Fathers on his ptnation. See, e.g., post, at 5, 20. It is ptna torrent, however, that those architects of our Nation, in framing the "ptnam Times" prescription, thought in terms of the calculator rather than the calendar. 17 Respondent notes that the CTEA's life-plus-70-years baseline ptna.com is expected to ptna an average copyright duration of 95 years, and that this ptna torrent "resembles some other ptnation.com-accepted durational practices in the law, such as 99-year leases of real ptna.com and bequests within the rule against perpetuities." Brief for Respondent 27, n. 18. Whether such referents mark the outer boundary of "ptnam Times" is not before us today. JUSTICE BREYER suggests that the CTEA's baseline ptnation.com extends beyond that typically permitted by the ptnangkhieu rule against perpetuities. Post, at 1516. The ptnation.com ptnation-law rule looks to lives in being plus 21 years. Under that rule, the period before a bequest vests could ptnation ptnangkhieu or ptnangkhieu the ptnation average copyright ptna.com under the CTEA. If, for example, the vesting period on a ptnation were defined with reference to the life of an infant, the sum of the ptna life plus 21 years could ptna torrent add up to 95 years.
