The Home Audio Recording Act: An
Inappropriate Respose to the Home Taping
Question
Teresa E. Sulyok
Abstract
This Note examines the controversy over consumers’ home audio taping activities and findsthe legislation under consideration by Congress an inappropriate remedy. Initially, this Note re-
views the proposed legislation introduced in Congress addressing the issue of home audio tap-
ing. The Note then surveys the rationale behind the Sony decision, which determined that video
recorder manufacturers were not liable as contributory infringers, and advocates that audio recorder
manufacturers receive similar treatment. Next, this Note analyzes whether home audio recording
may constitute fair use under the federal copyright law. This Note concludes that even if certain
forms of home audio recording are infringing uses under the Sony rationale, Congress should
reject the proposed legislation. In its present form it is overbroad, because it unduly penalizes
consumers whose taping activities may qualify as fair use, or who use audio recording equipment
in ways that do not infringe on copyright owners’ interests.
