以下是小弟的翻譯...花了不少時間說
也許翻的語法會怪怪的...但也接近了啦^^
可以發現美國對於IFPI的鄙視程度
以及美國記者的專業涵養
實在是沒得比....

University raided in MP3 copyright action mp3版權與校園入侵事件
By: Thomas C Greene in Washington
Posted: 14/04/2001 at 21:43 GMT
A multinational recording-industry front group called the International
Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) has filed suit with
the Tainan District Prosecutor's Office against fourteen students at
Taiwan's National Chengkung University, accusing them of illegally
copying and trading MP3 music files, the Taipei Times reports.
IFPI,一個由國際唱片企業所聯合的組織,稱之為國際唱片交流協會,已經發函
給台南地檢署正式對14名成功大學學生提起告訴,控告他們非法下載有版權並在市
面販售的mp3檔案,來自於台北的消息.
The students themselves tell a different story, but according to the
paper, the industry group's local collaborator, Li Jui-bin, claimed
that copyright violations on university campuses is out of control,
and that previous, non-aggressive efforts to discourage it had proven
ineffective.
學生們的說法與報導不同,但是根據報導,IFPI在台協會理事長李瑞斌控告在
大學校園中嚴重侵犯版權的問題已經嚴重到無法控制,而在這之前,柔性的勸導
卻使我們沮喪的證明了這一切都是徒勞無功的.
He indicated that scapegoating a handful of students would serve as
a warning to others, and declared that the unfortunate fourteen will
be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
李瑞斌指出那些成為代罪羔羊的學生可以作對其他人做殺雞儆猴的警告,並且宣
告那14名學生名不幸的同學將會在法律涵蓋的範圍下被起訴.
The industry will not accept a settlement in the case, he vowed.
該協會絕對不會在這次事件中作出讓步或是和解,他對天發誓.
Students throughout Taiwan have since been expressing alarm on
numerous BBS, and are also exchanging tips on how to avoid being
caught if university officials elsewhere are cowed into raiding their
dormitory rooms and examining their personal computers while they're
away at class.
全台灣的學生開始在眾多BBS上公佈這個緊急的消息,並且交換意見,如何在
他們上課的時候避免檢察官在其他地方威脅並進入他們的宿舍檢查她們的個人電腦
並討論避免被捉.
Keeping such files on portable hard drives which can easily be
concealed on one's person seems to us the best suggestion currently
circulating.
在目前的情況下,用抽取式硬碟來保存隱藏個人的mp3檔案似乎是最簡單的方式.
Who are these clowns?
這些在檯面下的人是誰?
The IFPI is an international spin organization much like the
American RIAA which tries to justify the appalling greed and imperial
ambitions of the recording industry by demonizing copyrights violators
and blaming them for every dirty trick they're forced to stoop to.
以各個唱片公司做同心圓的結合國際組織的IFPI非常類似於美國的RIAA,總是極力
的將他們令人髮指的貪婪以及獨占唱片事業的野心解釋成合理,並且用任何卑劣骯
髒的手段將那些唱片公司說程式侵犯版權的魔鬼,進而使他們屈服於RIAA的旗下.
Internet piracy is "cyber-theft on a huge scale, and it's a very big
obstacle to the music industry's own advances to develop legitimate
ways for consumers to enjoy music on-line," the group bleats.
國際著作權侵犯事件是大規模的網路竊盜事件,而且是對唱片業的利益造成非常大
的妨害,因為這對消費者來說,這是一個非法的享受網路音樂的方式,IFPI無奈的
訴說著.
This is pure RIAA Scripture, meant to excuse the industry's obvious
reluctance to make music available on the Net. But the true 'problem'
from the industry's perspective is that the Net makes it too easy for
non-aligned companies to get into the act and dare compete with them.
這是純粹RIAA一貫的說辭,為了替與日俱增的合法網路音樂作辯護.從RIAA的遠
景來說,因為這樣可以輕易的使那些沒有加入他們旗下且膽敢與他們競爭的唱片
公司加入他們的旗下.
Internet piracy, then, is the industry's bogey man justifying efforts
to shut down music distributors such as MP3.com and Napster which it
can't control, in its quest to monopolize content distribution as
well as production.
國際侵權事件之後,RIAA的怪獸理所當然的盡所有努力讓音樂發送站停工,如
MP3.comc和Napster等他們原本無法掌握的不合作公司.他們的追求是要獨占那些
發送物,就如同獨占那些產品一樣.
It's clear that the industry intends to withhold significant Internet
distribution schemes until after it's squashed all competing entities,
by the clever tactic of making competition a crime with recent
copyright laws such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)
and EU Directive on Copyright, which it so vigorously sponsored,
and so eagerly helped to draft.
很清楚的,RIAA在抑制那些重要的網際網路分布的計畫,直到她們粉碎了所有不肯
合作的競爭者.經由這些精明的策略,如DMCA著作權法及EU Directive版權,使得
其他的競爭者在現今的法律上成為有罪,
Blackmail 黑函
The IFPI is organized by regions such as North America, Europe,
Asia/Pacific, Latin America, and so on; but its Board of Directors is
composed of such familiar personalities as EMI's Ken Berry, BMG's
Joel Schoenfeld, Sony's Robert Bowlin, Universal's Jorgen Larsen,
Warner's Stephen Shrimpton, and the RIAA's own Hilary Rosen.
IFPI由北美,歐洲,亞洲/太平洋,以及拉丁美洲等地區所組成的;但是他的董事會
的組成卻是由大眾所熟知的人物,如EMI的Ken Berry,BMG的Joel Schoenfeld,
Sony公司的Robert Bowlin,Universal的Jorgen Larsen,Warner公司的 Stephen
Shrimpton,以及RIAA自己的 Hilary Rosen.
Clearly the mere international arm of the American RIAA, the group's
mission is to harmonize all the world's law's and regulations to
precisely what the industry wants.
很清楚的,這些美國RIAA極少數的國際權威,他們的目的是調整世界的法律並清楚
的規範法律,使法律完全達到他們企業所要的標準.
Because East Asia is notorious for its absolutely laughable copyright
enforcement, we might imagine that by terrorizing a handful of young
students in an authoritarian country such as Taiwan (look for similar
busts in Singapore and South Korea soon), the group is showing its
exasperation -- even desperation -- with this state of affairs.
東亞地區版權的實行極為可笑是早已惡名昭彰的,我們可以想見在獨裁的國家如
台灣(可以很快想到相似的例子如新加坡和南韓),IFPI才展現他們的盛怒--甚至
是絕望--在這樣的國家,這樣的情況.
The IFPI's Taiwanese mouthpiece, Li Jui-bin, spoke triumphantly
of 'sending a message'. We reckon the subtext is directed primarily
towards the country's lawmakers, hinting that the industry is prepared
to continue making criminals of promising young kids until the
legislature capitulates to the blackmail, and obediently drafts its
own DMCA. R
台灣國際唱片交流協會的發言人李瑞斌得意的發出這個訊息. 我們可以想見這些
檯面下的問題是國家執法人員最主要的方向,他們委婉的表示IFPI還是準備繼續
將那些前程無限的年輕學生定罪,直到立法機關願意承認那黑函,並且順從地開始
起草DMCA法案(1000年版權法案)!!!

真的花了很久的時間 其實感觸也蠻多的
原來所謂的智慧財產權 是大企業玩弄我們的把戲
圓一場她們成為世界首富的美夢
執法的人員其實是中立的 他們按照法律做事
但是 法律卻被有心人所利用 而當很多人義憤填膺的說成大學生不知廉恥之時
他們真真正正的才是那些權威人士的傀儡 真是可悲
今天我真的用心完成了中譯 才發現美國真的是比我們進步太多了
他們可以很清楚的捉到是企業在搞鬼 然後修正法律
而不像我們先判罪 有同學作替死的羔羊 然後再來修法
哎哎 希望我們的執法人員 法律念歸念 也要動一點腦筋
變成別人的傀儡還義正嚴詞的說 台南地檢署搜索行動一切合法
如今想想 很可悲 也很可笑!!!
