Direct marketers buoyed by Supreme Court's tax ruling

Article Abstract:

Direct Marketing executives expressed their satisfaction with a Supreme Court decision which states that they cannot be compelled to collect taxes on purchases made by their residents. The issue stems from a North Dakota state requirement that orders direct marketers to collect and remit taxes on purchases made by state residents. This directly challenged a 1967 Supreme Court ruling that said that direct marketers are not required to collect use taxes in states where they do not have a physical presence.

Ruling may intensify software competition

Article Abstract:

Competition within the computer software industry is expected to increase as a result of a ruling made by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals stating that copyright protection could not be extended to software execution or 'behavior.' Analysts believe the decision, which resulted from a lawsuit filed by Computer Associates International Inc against Atlai Inc, will spur competition by encouraging software developers to come up with products without apprehensions of being sued.
