Though I would have more to say about the clear attempt to ignore your request by TechCrunch, I think another issue is a stake here that applies to government issues within technology, a subject that seems to apply to the TechPresident interests. That issue is copyright law and how it is affecting the internet and its use. Though I would like to say it is important to have these rights as a creator to protect works published on the internet, at the same time, in today's world it seems almost useless to establish these rights as they are nearly impossible to enforce (except in clear cases like yours). Where this applies more is to the the issue that has been created with the use of DRM, and other such protections of digital media that make it harder for users to access content, not easier. As someone learning to be part of en ever changing music industry, it would be nice to see Presidential candidates, or at least new steps in governmental policy, that would put an end to the debate over DRM and other such protections as they inhibit the full use of the internet. Although I could go into many examples, I think other writers like Gerd Leonhard do a better job... <a href="http://www.endofcontrol.com" title="http://www.endofcontrol.com">http://www.endofcontrol.com</a>. I hope your situation straitens itself out as you explore the difficulties of protection online and what it means to not only the future of music, but the future of all media, as media as we know is shifting to digital instead of the world we know today.</p> Tue, 25 Dec 2007 10:47:15 -0500 socruls15 comment 1599 at http://www.techpresident.com http://www.techpresident.com/blog/entry/15731/daily_digest_the_blimp_is_up#comment-1578 <p>Yeah, I saw it coming guys.</p> Sun, 16 Dec 2007 11:08:07 -0500 littlebier8 comment 1578 at http://www.techpresident.com http://www.techpresident.com/blog/entry/57/over_the_transom#comment-24 <p>Politics 2.0 Blog focuses on the convergence of politics and web 2.0.
