We did a great panel on DRM and the Digital Hub yesterday here at OSXCon with
|
|
Tim O'Reilly, Victor Nemachek (from El Gato, makers of the EyeTV digital TV
|
|
recorder for the Mac), Dan Gillmor, and JD Lasica, who's working on a book on
|
|
fair use and copyfights. Glenn "802.11b Networking News" Fleishman took great
|
|
notes through the talk:
|
|
|
|
Dan: Tim, you're a "content or copyright holder…talk about these issues."
|
|
|
|
Obscurity can be a tool. Something like 100K books published in the US.
|
|
Most books are forgotten after publication. Ravening copying theft is
|
|
wrong: most aren't pirated. Publishers puts book that someone sweated over
|
|
for years on shelves for three months, doesn't sell, that's it, and the
|
|
author has no rights. Publishers keeps rights til out of print, etc.
|
|
|
|
Oblivion is fate of most books: "Piracy would be the best thing for those
|
|
books." People wouldn't pirate them in general, because people generally
|
|
like to respect the rights of creators. "Piracy is a marginal act; it takes
|
|
away some of the cream."
|
|
|
|
Publishing won't go away, but it will change the idea of who is a
|
|
publisher. Early on in the Web, the idea was that everyone could be a
|
|
publisher. The way in which Web sites interact with publishers is often
|
|
very much like the way that book publishers try to get placement and
|
|
position in bookstores.
|
|
|
|
Publishing is aggregation. People will re-emerge as publishers. Will
|
|
Hollywood be the publishers of the future or will someone else?
|
|
|
|
Users are voting by their use of programs like Kazaa. Eventually, media
|
|
companies will adopt. But if the changes are hardcoded into law, then we're
|
|
stuck for a long time with "some mistakes."
