Update Action Replay: No Copyright Infringement by Gaming Accessory Product
The CJEU ruled, in response to questions referred by the German Federal Court of Justice (BGH), that the Action Replay software for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) likely does not constitute copyright infringement. The case, initiated by Sony against the third-party provider Datel, centered on whether the modification of game elements, such as unlocking additional content, infringes Sony's protected copyrights. This ruling has far-reaching implications for the digital space and may impact the use of mods and similar tools in other software sectors as well.
