Kennt einer von euch CHIP.de? Das soll so ne Seite sein, wo man sich auch Software oder Spiele runterladen kann. Ich bin mehr oder weniger durch Zufall drauf gestoßen – weil es doch jetzt seit zwei Tagen die SC:10 kostenlos zum Download gibt. Naja … keine Ahnung, ob das wirklich ne Relevanz hat, aber auf jeden Fall haben die da so Download Chart-Listen und da hat sich die SC:10 direkt auf Rang 2 hochgeschossen. Einzig Trackmania scheint unter den kostenlosen Games aktuell noch beliebter zu sein.

SC:10 - recht beliebt nach nur 2 Tagen

As 2009 is comes to a very wet and windy close, one has to expect the obligatory end of year ‘Best Album’ polls to be cracked out left, right and centre in every blog and magazine going. And yes Wonky is openly jumping on the bandwagon, but no other poll has taken it’s subjects from the dancefloor of Bristol’s favourite gay night, has it? No, don’t think so.

* Bill Simmon has links on how to argue with your relatives about climate change over Thanksgiving. (If you have a smartphone, just queue up How to Talk to a Climate Skeptic and wait.) As I wrote over at Bill’s place, Matt Taibi’s recent piece on Sarah Palin—describing how she uses her endless interpersonal conflicts to generate political capital that is totally independent of anything so mundane as “ideas” or “positions”—really opened my eyes on how this Climategate nonsense is doing its work. Climategate shifts the field of debate from statistics and facts, which only a small minority are qualified to discuss, to the field of interpersonal relations and “bad behavior,” on which we can all have an opinion. It’s being pushed as a “huge scandal” precisely because it remakes climate change into a moral question about how smart people sometimes turn out to be arrogant jerks. That this moral question is totally irrelevant to the facts isn’t a bug, it’s the whole point.

* Also on the climate front: Obama will go to Copenhagen to commit to 17% under 2005, California introduces its cap and trade plan, and (via Alex G.) rich nations are not following through on promised climate change funds for developing nations. Surprise surprise.

* Elsewhere on the arguing-with-relatives front: Steve Benen has your charts that show the stimulus worked.

* BLDGBLOG goes inside Yucca Mountain.

* Another second-hand report on a recent Žižek talk, this one on ecology. There’s even more ecologically informed theory at Australian Humanities Review.

* History’s first entry in the things-that-make-me-kind-of-like-Bill-O’Reilly file.

* One of America’s most loathsome politicians may be about to stage a comeback.

* Stephen King may write a sequel to The Shining. Cynical-C says this must be stopped; maybe I’m getting soft, but it sounds to me like it actually could be decent.

* And, via How the University Works, UC Davis student activists have extracted limited concessions from the administration. The crisis, of course, remains ongoing.

Die Kläger erhoben Daten über die Nutzung von Musikliedern im Hörfunk der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und ermittelten wöchentlich durch statistische Stichproben die Verkaufszahlen der entsprechenden Tonträger. Aus diesen Daten erstellten sie sog. „Charts“, die wöchentlich die aktuelle Platzierung, den Titel und den Interpreten, das „Label“ und die in der Vorwoche erreichte Position sowie die für die Platzierung maßgebliche Punktzahl auswiesen. Diese „Charts“ wurden in zwei Zeitschriften veröffentlicht.

Die Beklagten vertrieben unter dem Titel „HIT BILANZ“ in Buchform und auf CD-ROM eine Liste von Interpreten und ihren Hits, die auf dem Datenmaterial der Kläger beruhte. Diese Liste war in Zeiträume eingeteilt und sortierte die dargestellten Hitlisten alphabetisch nach den Interpreten mit den entsprechenden Zusatzinformationen wie bspw. Jahreszahlen der Chartsplatzierungen und Anzahl der Wochen in den Charts. Darüber hinaus enthielt die CD-ROM ein Suchsystem.

Die Kläger waren der Ansicht, dass ihre „Charts“ entweder nach § 4 UrhG oder nach §§ 87a ff. UrhG geschützt seien und sahen deshalb hierin eine Verletzung ihrer Rechte.

Der BGH verneinte zunächst einen Urheberschutz gem. § 4 UrhG, da „es sich bei den „Charts“ der Kläger nicht um persönliche geistige Schöpfungen handele. Die Darstellung dieser „Charts“, also die Auswahl und Anordnung ihrer einzelnen Elemente, basiere allein auf Zweckmäßigkeitserwägungen.“

Jedoch bejahte er eine Schutzfähigkeit als Datenbank gem. § 87a Abs. 1 Satz 1 UrhG.

Schließlich bejahte er auch eine Verletzung des Leistungsschutzrechtes aus § 87a Abs. 1 Satz 1 UrhG durch die Übernahme der Daten seitens der Beklagten.

Dazu führte er aus, dass „die Vervielfältigung dann ein Eingriff in das ausschließliche Recht des Datenbankherstellers sei, wenn sie einen nach Art oder Umfang wesentlichen Teil der Datenbank betrifft.“

Dieses bejahte der BGH in diesem Fall.

Denn seiner Ansicht nach, „komme es nicht auf die Übernahme der Anordnung der Daten in einer der Datenbank des Herstellers entsprechenden Gestaltung an, weshalb eine andersartige Anordnung der entnommenen Daten durch den Verwender nicht dazu führe, dass diese ihre Eigenschaft als wesentlichen Teil der Datenbank verlieren“.
Daher waren die Unterschiede im Aufbau und der Anordnung der Daten zwischen den „Charts“ der Kläger und der Liste des Beklagten unerheblich.

Mein Fazit:

Bei dem Schutz des § 87 a UrhG handelt es sich um einen Investitionsschutz und nicht um den Schutz einer persönlichen geistigen Schöpfung. § 4 UrhG und § 87 a UrhG sind nebeneinander anwendbar, so dass ein Urheberschutz neben einem Leistungsschutz in Betracht kommt. Soweit die Verfolgung von Zweckmäßigkeitserwägungen den Aufbau und die Gestaltung der Datenbank bestimmen, kommt jedoch nur ein Leistungsschutz in Betracht.

Sales are bad it seems.

We were sitting in a small, dark booth drinking expensive beer when Abby and I decided that we had a ethical (perhaps even a moral) obligation to explain something to you.

One of the things that united us as Jerks With Glasses – aside from the fact that we, you know, both wear glasses – is an abiding love of categorization. This love led us to create a tongue-in-cheek photographic archive of people on boats (with such categories as UNSAFE!, your kids are bored, and phallic symbols). It led us to produce a series of events that neatly organize your moments of adolescent humiliation into themes.

And it is leading us, over the next several weeks, to present to you a taxonomy of jerks (with glasses).

It is our hope that you will use this information to orient yourself to the world with a better understanding of the motivations (and often the poor choices) of those that surround you.

In planning this taxonomy, we sketched out a chart*. One axis denotes the level of influence or the amount of power a jerk has. We have affectionately named the other axis “The Fuck You Axis,” which should be self-explanatory and accounts for an important problem we’ve encountered when writing about jerks. There are some jerks you admire and some jerks you really loath.

And so begins your Snarkimental Education:
HIPSTERS WITH GLASSES BIGGER THAN YOURS

Who's got the biggest...

We agonized over how to define this category. It hits a little close to home. We have prominent frames. We listen to music that’s generally better than yours. We have vintage aprons and cookbooks. We watch our artsy tv series with the French subtitles turned on. We’ve created this site, for goodness sake.

But we’re not sure we want to be considered “the dead end of Western civilization.”

So. Here it is.  Hipsters recycle prior trends without a fleck of authenticity.  So, remember those Sally Jesse Raphael frames your mother inexplicably made you wear in middle school?  Yeah.  Hipsters like those.  Remember Elvis Costello’s glasses (great band name, by the way)?  They wear those without recognizing the man to whom they ought to be paying homage.  Hipsters are jerks because they hate history.  They hate history while pretending not to care.

Abby and I may be jerks with prominent glasses, BUT WE DO NOT HATE HISTORY.  AND WE CARE A LOT.

* We will provide a copy of this chart when we finish presenting the taxonomy.

Our top 3 artists this week were Grizzly Bear, Owl City, and Ke$ha.

Grizzly Bear is an indie rock band based out of Brooklyn, NY. They’ve released three studio albums to date, the latest being Veckatimest. Grizzly Bear has made numerous appearances on various talk shows over the past few months, including David Letterman, Jimmy Fallon, and Conan O’Brien. Single to check out: “Two Weeks.”

Owl City is a synthpop/electronica act from Owatonna, MN, consisting solely of Adam Young. Owl City has been around since 2007, but only recently gained mainstream popularity. Be on the lookout for tour dates in your area, as Owl City has a bunch of dates coming up in the Midwest and South in the coming months. Single to check out: “Fireflies.”

Ke$ha is a pop/dance artist out of Los Angeles, making her fourth appearance in the top 3. She first burst onto the music scene with an appearance in Flo Rida’s“Right Round.” A popular inquiry about Ke$ha involves her height, as she is a fairly tall woman at 6′1.” Single to check out: “Tik Tok.”

The Kicknote chart-toppers this week were Justin Bieber, Them Crooked Vultures, and Ke$ha.

Justin Bieber is a 15 year-old Canadian pop singer who has a deal with Island Records. His first full-length album just released last week. Bieber has been in the news recently because of a borderline riot at a Canadian mall involving hoards of teenage girl fans. Single to check out: “One Time.”
