Abstract
In the recent British Horseracing Board case, the English High Court signaled a return to the "sweat of the brow" standard of copyright protection. Although recent attempts have been made in the United States to protect databases under this standard, this iBrief argues that the information economy is wise to continuing protecting this data through trade secret, State misappropriation and contract law until legislation is passed.
