U.S. Copyright Office May Support Law That Threatens iPods

According to this CNet news article,

Marybeth Peters, the U.S. Register of Copyrights, is planning to announce her support for the measure at a Senate hearing on Thursday.

The law would make peer-to-peer networks illegal and make things that aid piracy illegal as well. Could that refer to an iPod? Is that smell Microsoft droppings...? Maybe but we think it unlikely that Congress would outlaw the iPod and other legitimate digital music devices that are so popular with consumers.[Dana Baggett]
