Defining "distribution"
The letter of US copyright law specifically and clearly stipulates that in order to "distribute" a copyrighted work, an actual, physical exchange of a material object (a book, a CD, a tape, etc.) must take place. In this sense, the Copyright Act isn't really cognizant of the concept of digital distribution of copyrighted works—it just isn't on the law's radar at all. Apparently, the DMCA didn't really fix things in this regard, either.
