I had missed that post by Derek on the first sale doctrine and video stores. The context is Bowers v. Baystate. Cory’s comment on that post was noted by Donna and it calls for regulation of contracts related to intellectual property.

Can you even call those contracts licenses now that they apply to objects that are subject to intellectual property but concern rights and obligations outside the scope of IP?

Derek’s post also points to Findlaw’s model contracts directory, which is a nice resource I did not know about.
