Go, Read: More on Crumb Vs. Amazon

At his Technology & Marketing Law Blog, Eric Goldman provides a succinct analysis of the Crumb Versus Amazon.com, Inc. case which became national newswire fodder late last week. Happily, he also uploads the actual complaint itself. Goldman points out what leapt out at me from the news story about the case, that what's at question is how much in damages Crumb's owed from the period his art was being used, despite the art coming down immediately. It's not like this doesn't seem obvious if you think about it, but so many potential cases go away when people apologize and fold that further action might surprise some people.
