That was a fascinating case. The photographer lost in the initial round, but won 2 appeals, and then the hall of fame gave up after that. Imagine if you could prevent people of taking pictures of buildings. Then you couldn't take a picture of downtown cities, you'd have to negotiate with all those building owners! If you search for the above case (Gentile vs Rock and Roll Hall of Fame), then you find the famous Sydney Opera House tried to keep iStockPhoto from having a picture. That doesn't seem to have gone to trial, but a law professor thought it wouldn't hold up in court.
