Just to clarify, "Fair Use" does not cover redistribution in its  
entirety (be it performance, literary, or otherwise); it merely  
allows for limited use of sections of the work in various  
circumstances. (i.e., I can take a few lines of <insert book here>  
and use it in satire, which would be protected under the "Fair Use"  
provisions of US and Canadian law (and presumably others  
internationally).
