Fair Use Worth Trillions to US But They Won't Share.
Ars Technica has coverage of a Computer and Communications Industry Association (CCIA) report which examines the value of Fair Use to the US economy. Nate Anderson writes:
The CCIA report's numbers are staggering. The "fair use economy" accounted for 23 percent of all US real economic growth between 2002 and 2007. Fair use industries (core and non-core combined) generated $4.7 trillion in 2007. And "about one out of every eight workers in the United States is employed in an industry that benefits from the protection afforded by fair use."
