Court Denies Audible's Request for Settlement Conference in 'Captions' Case - Publishers Weekly

Panzer didn't post yesterday because What's His Name has a cold and Panzer has been helping Mom take care of him.

Audible didn't ask them first?
Today as Panzer was mopping the floor in the Panzermobile, he found something under the floor mat. Pulling it out, he discovered it was a post from Publishers Weekly about the court case against Audible's Captions feature. Panzer told you about the case last month.

According to Andrew Albanese's post, Judge Valerie Caproni has denied Audible's request to turn the case over to another judge for a settlement conference. The publishers in the case said they didn't believe a settlement conference would be productive and, therefore, wouldn't participate. Publishers believe Audible's Captions feature is a copyright infringement which Audible denies.

Panzer says, "Hmm ... This case just keeps dragging on."

Note: This is a medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and a muffin for today's reading selection.
