Your point at the end where technology is making a mockery of the law is spot on. We've approached in my opinion a strange era where the technology is consistantly moving much faster than the law. As usually seems to happen, the people who understand the technology the least are the ones who make the important decisions regarding it. Thar be dragons ahead methinks. Well said Dietrich.

It's the printed media that is dying. Just that Murdock was too slow in monetizing in new media. Today it's easier to listen or watch podcasts and read blogs than to carry a newspaper or watch the boob tube. The quality of media on the web is far superior. I like reading an article followed by the comments (which are always more interesting). Why read a monologue on the newspaper which is just copied ad hoc from PR releases or from Reuters. Court cases and M$ deals will not dictate how I get my news. I'll just avoid using Bing from here on out because I don't like to be told what I can and can not consume! The judge’s got it all wrong.
