Der US-Radiosender NPR hat in seiner Sendung „Justice Talking“ ein Special zum Thema „Peer-to-Peer File Sharing“ gemacht. Zu Gast im Studio waren Dean Garfield, Vice President and Director, Legal Affairs, Worldwide Anti-Piracy at the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) und Kembrew McLeod, ein Journalist, Activist, Künstler und Professor in the department of communication studies at the University of Iowa. Er ist Autor zweier Bücher, “Owning Culture: Authorship, Ownership and Intellectual Property Law” und “Freedom of Expression®: Overzealous Copyright Bozos and Other Enemies of Creativity.” Eine sehr interessante Diskussion:

How far can the entertainment industry go to safeguard its ownership interests in music, movies and other digital content?
