It does remind me of the time that Michael Glading declared
is that cos you're old?
seriously though, if you're suggesting that the motion picture industries undermine or dismantle their copy protection system so that teachers don't have to go to the expense of buying a copy or telesyncing a copy of the relevant bits, its hardly a glading fopah is it. Its a seriously tricky situation and as fun as it is to sit back from a distance and chuckle superiorly into our collective sleeves. What exactly is it you think these people should do to accommodate teaching in a way that protects their already fragile standpoint.maybe that's just petty bullshit, but I can see their point.

Page 95,
stop side tracking this issue steve.
you said it in your first 2 words. "page 95". 95 is not 100.as for sacha's comment,
I haven't got a monopoly of petty on here by a long shot as any number of your posts since your "who owns culture comment" will testify. as for your "ignorant bullshit" add on, fuck off big nose, if you were only half as knowledgeble and wise as you think you are, you'd still come up well short.
What exactly do you think you know about how apra's system works, how it has changed over the last decade and how it addresses the needs of the wide expanse of music creators from the biggest to the most introverted, and how that could ever be applied to all media on the net.
Your comments are like cotton wool in a world of brick.And why would you for a second imagine I'd want to discuss anything with you?
seriously, you personally,.... don't engage me, It's one of the few things I can agree with Mark on. -
No, you
aren't you supposed to be ignoring me like der fuhious ordered you to.
I'd like it better if you would. saves me rolling my eyes at your comments. -
It's sad that the technology is so allied in peoples minds with piracy and copyright infringement.
I don't think that's the case entirely.
peter jenner put forward the subscription model idea (add a few dollars to every internet connection fee and say go for it) at his talks last year. The theory is interesting but the reality of channeling that money fairly to content holders isn't an easy one and then there are those who say "I only use the net for email so why should I pay" etc.
To make it work you really do need an increased level of control and knowledge of what goes down the pipes. -
Software piracy costs $50 billion a year, according to BSA

now isn't that so much better than trialing it in your own back yard. you'll be able to critique with glee from a distance, I'd say that's worked out great for everyone, except the french.

primary
so run it by me again what level of educational use of drm protected motion picture industry own work is needed at primary school level that requires the dismantling of their copy protection system. Been a while since I was at primary school but I can't remember enrolling in a film studies course for pre teens that looked at the shot composition of an excerpt of a motion picture. Maybe that was just my school though, It was a pretty rough area of fendalton after all. we did watch a few movies in their entirety though, until it was time for afternoon nap.

Tad more expensive too...
absolutely right, I don't know why they ever abandoned the old slate and chalk approach.... still many schools do have this stuff and universities definitely have it coming out their ears. I used to work in an av centre at a university. the waste of money on hardly used equipment that went on was a vision to behold.
its easy to over react but who in reality is requiring excerpts from dvds? Universities? then they already have all they need to address the issue. primary schools? maybe not so much.

bluray disc, high res screen,
3 ccd camera....
just a tad better than the suggested sketch method, but don't let that get in the way of being dramatic. -
Perhaps they could encourage teachers to sketch the movie instead, scene by scene
What's wrong with buying a copy?
