TransactionSpace aims to make the deal-making process more efficient, intuitive and transparent. The site takes the three primary steps of a transaction – negotiation, document drafting and closing – and integrates them within an online management tool. Lawyers begin by identifying the documents the transaction will require, and the parties who will have to sign each document. The system then tracks the back-and-forth of negotiating and revising the wording of each document, maintaining a full record of versions and dates. Once the documents are done, the system prepares the necessary signature pages and delivers them to the appropriate parties.

The Digital Media Association, or DiMA, is concerned with protecting its members’ right to use copyright holders’ intellectual property at reasonable cost so as to offer a service consumers clearly want, but that record companies thus far have chosen not to provide.
