The main problem with that standard, focusing on <i>copies</i>, is that when a work isn&#x27;t fixed in a physical medium (like an optical disk), everything is a copy. The internet just copies, into your system memory, onto your storage device.<p>(When you play a DVD, you copy it into memory. But at that moment you give it to someone else, it&#x27;s the physical thing.)<p>This all means that the spirit and the mechanical effect of the laws are different, now that we use the internet for everything.
