Perhaps the most eagerly awaited policy development of 2005 will be the Supreme Court's ruling in the Grokster case due in July. The case will likely be the most complex and significant Internet case the highest court has heard since ACLU vs. Reno. The decentralized nature of the Internet combined with the Betamax standard could collide with established intellectual property rights and emerging digital rights management technologies. The panel will discuss what's at stake in the case, where the Court will likely come out, and what Congress needs to do to prepare for either contingency.
