Touche, very much.
Can we all go home now? -
Have to admire the surrealism of the underlying metaphor.

Ignorance comes easily for some.

I'd also welcome talk about solutions rather than endless bleating about the same problems for the same small group of people - the beleagured music industries.

This adds what to the conversation, really? You could have just gone straight to the interesting bit without needing any dig at anyone else.
And I really don't believe that rob's talking about copying=theft, he's actually currently having a semi-sensible conversation about the costs of making music at the moment (making no predictions btw).
Keir, the posts after Yamis's happened while I was writing. Amidst the conversation about pricing structures in the old music industry, Rob has yet again wilfully conflated copying with theft despite being told many times by many others why they are not the same thing. After my accidental post rather than preview slip, I gave you the link to his fatuous coke example.
Given the history of this thread I am unclear why you would think that is not relevant. I've had to wade through dross again to get to its end and that annoys me. If I could filter out certain posters automatically I'd be happy but then the rest of the conversation gets dragged off-course too. I basically have no tolerance any more for fools who waste time rehashing falsehoods when there are actual fresh local concerns to discuss.

With links this time:
Cory Doctorow drew world attention to this. Solid background from IP Watch, and an insider story from one of the people who got things moving in the first place, blind New Zealander Jonathan Mosen.

Uh, I think you'll find Rob has just claimed that copying is theft for the umpteenth time, so nothing is changing in at least one hermetically sealed universe.
Meanwhile, there are pressing copyright issues like our representatives joining an attempt to kill a proposed WIPO treaty about international access to books by people with impaired vision.

And now I see the same conversation has already been had on t'other thread about this matter.
-
Ahem, I may have inadvertently done that by responding on your other live thread before reading this one.
