If you can't face going through all the submissions, I recommend at least reading the Issues Paper

http://www.alrc.gov.au/publications/copyright-ip42

It is a broad ranging summary and a very readable starting point for learning about digital copyright issues - includes cloud computing, data and text mining, caching, orphan works,

 transformative use etc.

As well as good background for the forthcoming review of NZ Copyright Act and TPP negotiations.

A quick skim of some of the library and archive submissions makes quite good reading.
