Congress mulls revisions to DMCA (News.com)

Declan McCullagh reports on the House subcommittee meeting which considered the Digital Media Consumers' Rights Act (a DMCA reform bill). "It's unclear what the prospects are for the Boucher-Doolittle bill. It has a mere 15 co-sponsors in the House and no Senate version exists. What's more, the consumer protection subcommittee that convened Wednesday's hearing does not have jurisdiction over copyright law, making it unlikely the bill will be forwarded to the House floor this year."
