Napster holdings Use of the Napster system to “sample” songs is not
a fair use Because Napster is capable of a substantial
noninfringing use, the operators of the system lack the “constructive knowledge” of infringing uses necessary to support contributory liability
Because the Napster operators can ascertain whether a particular recording is being copied illegitimately, they have timely “actual knowledge” of specific acts of infringement necessary to support contributory liability
For the same reason, the Napster operators have the “supervisory control” necessary to support vicarious infringement
