"Eldred vs. Ashcroft" Testimony Before US Supreme Court

Ted Byfield writes concerning the recent US Supreme Court testimony:

The Eldred case is potentially very important, potentially a fiasco.
If it turns out to be the latter, hopefully it'll also be the end of
the popularity/dominance of reformists like Lessig and their affirmative critiques and market worship. On the other hand, if the former pans out — and
the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act gets shot down — things
may get pretty interesting. Not necessarily good, but interesting.

Here's the transcript of Lessig's argument before the court, about as
hot off the presses as it gets.
