For intellectual-property attorneys, the lead-up to the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the MGM vs. Grokster case was like being in a crowded sports bar before the Super Bowl.

Bets were placed on the outcome of the ultimate showdown between two formidable teams. Everyone had an opinion on the players and we all followed every play. In football, once the fans leave and the stadium is cleared, a new season begins and every team starts from scratch again. But this particular court ruling is just the beginning. Now we have to figure out the implications and advise clients how the ruling affects their business.
