Boucher is currently drafting legislation that would amend a section of the 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which makes it a crime to traffic in tools designed primarily to circumvent copyright-control measures. Given the advent of MusicNet and Pressplay, the two big digital-music subscription services slated for launch later this year, Boucher also believes it's necessary to modify current laws to create a way for digital-music delivery services to legally make and sell copies of a copyrighted work, and to level the playing field for smaller independent sites when they compete with the big guys.
