  Re: admit it

  I was thinking that myself. If they're really so confident in their amazing patent why not sue the entire internet?

• On the post: Thinking Of Copyright As Property Is As Natural As Thinking Of Smells As Property

  That story about the smells of the food seems very similar to the idea that a shop playing the radio must pay a licence just because it is a "public performance"

  I guess they've made so little profit because they've had to pay her so well

  The key is to just forget about the mainstream "creative industries"
  
  BPI can shove it for all I care. They do not represent anything that I am interested in.
  
  Boo hoo

• On the post: EU Censorship Plan With A Cheesy Name: The Clean IT Project

  

  JayTee ( profile ), 28 Feb, 2012 @ 09:30am

  The first thing that springs to mind about the name is CL(ean)IT Project, maybe that says more about me than the designers of this "project"

  Re: Have this page bookmarked...

  This has certainly been one of the most entertaining comment threads I've read in a long time!
  
  There's only really one thing for it..

  The internet requires electricity last time I checked, they'd surely be doing themselves a disservice as all the kitten pictures would be unavailable!

  They clearly don't want you poisoning their minds with ideas about due process and the dangers of censorship

• On the post: RIAA Insists That, Really, The Music Industry Is Collapsing; Reality Shows It's Just The RIAA That's Collapsing

  

  JayTee ( profile ), 20 Feb, 2012 @ 11:40am

  It's interesting...

  The decline of the RIAA's industry has been inversely proportional to the amount of money I've been spending on music at beatport/juno/trackitdown (all dance music emporiums)
  if the RIAA would just follow their lead and...OFFER A DECENT SERVICE THEN WE WILL PAY FOR IT
  
  :D

  If the RIAA are supposedly doing good then what would a world without them be like?

  Re:

  Regardless of your statement do you deny that Dodd has gone on the record threatening elected officials and admitting to bribery?
  
  Such an admission of guilt must be investigated no matter who you represent...unless you do not believe in a free and fair society and the application of justice (no matter how rich you are)

  I think one sure fire way to beat piracy is also to stop releasing completely banal, uninteresting movies

  The last time I actually bought a DVD was over a year ago...
  
  so I guess I'm about ready to wait another bajillion years before they release something else I might want without me forgetting

• On the post: Author Jonathan Franzen Thinks That Ebooks Mean The World Will No Longer Work

  His physical copies which he loves so dearly over a 50 year period are likely to decay and generally have a much higher potential for damage with each use...pages accidentally becoming ripped for example. Even the most careful of readers might have a moment of madness and drop a glass of water on their book or whatever.
  
  E-books however could be backed up numerous times if you wanted such that if one copy is destroyed...just go get the other one.
  
  And if he loves having physical articles to grab from bookshelves so much then he can even back up books on multiple hard drives or kindles and stack those on the shelves... just for the "thrill" of having something physical in your hands.
  
  Logic deficit seems to be a real problem in our times.
