Software Helps Tame the Copyright Jungle

(registration required): RightsLine, a rights technologycompany in LA, sees a gold mine of its own in helping companies sort through the maze of overlapping copyrights affecting their video, music, images and trademarks…RightsLine’s software is designed to track [the copyright] restrictions down to a single frame of film. It also helps companies discover the rights they have yet to exploit. For example, a Hollywood studio may have licensed the rights to sell the Spanish-language DVD of a film in South America, but not the Portuguese version.”
