As far as I remember the SCotUS verdict was "we don't want to say if it's copyrightable or not, but if it were copyritable it would fall under fair use".



And the appeals court said that it was copyrightable, so by not saying anything the supreme court let the appeals court ruling stand on that point.


That’s an interesting detail, thanks.
