Poor Hilary…Not!

    Over on Corante there is a great post that picks apart a whine by Hilary Rosen (the former head of the RIAA - the hopefuls that tried to kill Napster and file-swapping via lawsuits). Hilary’s whine may just be a publicity bid…but still…

    Update: this is funny too…
    And on the topic of Steve Jobs, Apple and IPod - there was an interesting article in yesterdays Age about him, chronicling his often out-of-whack decision making and predicting Apple’s commercial demise… (One day I’ll have a Mac. One day….)

Ah, but note that Hillary doesn’t want open, unencrypted MP3 music (as That Would Be Wrong), but instead a magical DRM system that works on everything, doesn’t inconvenience the user and still keeps the money flowing to the rightsholders.
