Best Buy has started a market for employees to guess which DVDs and video game consoles, among other products, will be popular.
“Consensus Point” was deleted just after the first publication. Previous: Email Interview: Ken Kittlitz — [Canadian Ken Kittlitz is David Perry's partner in Consensus Point.]

Fair use is a doctrine in United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without requiring permission from the rights holders, such as use for scholarship or review. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author’s work under a four-factor balancing test. It is based on free speech rights provided by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. The term “fair use” is unique to the United States; a similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright.
United States trademark law also incorporates a “fair use” defense. While the names are the same, the doctrines are quite different. [...]
1. the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
2. the nature of the copyrighted work;
3. the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
4. the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. [...]
