I think this article is rather biased, sentences like the one below give the article an unprofessional impression.
"In other words, the clever user who tries to free-ride on the original genius of the creator of this or that tune has to be educated, and forced to participate in a trusted system in order to obtain the desired tunes. No one has so far mentioned about either fair use or the reach of the public domain."

Ive been told by several sources that promotional materials (ie. movie posters) are not covered by copyright in Japan. Can anyone expand/confirm/debunk this? -- 168.156.89.181 04:11, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
Nope. Another much big one.
Can somebody expand on this:
Does copyright never expire in Japan? Is it not possible for a copyright holder to give a licence that waives all copyright restrictions? ( 19:11, 19 Dec 2003 (UTC)
Does anyone know how this relates to Japanese postage stamps? They aren't mentioned. BrokenSphere Msg me 00:04, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
The exceptions and limitations to copyright section in English specifically lists educational use as one exemption to the requirement for express permission from the author. However, this particular exemption doesn't exist in the Japanese version of the page at all (not to mention the wildly differing structure, which makes comparison difficult). How recent is the information on the respective pages? I'd mark this entire page as needing some serious review.

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:United States copyright law which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RM bot 12:45, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
I think the article should mention the "illegal downloading means jailtime" development as reported here and here (examples of reliable sources). -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 17:23, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
