Larry Lessig and Matt Oppenheim (of the Recording Industry Association of America) debated the Copyright Conundrum at PBS. Wide ranging interesting debate in reponse to a series of provocative questions. Donna Wenthworth points to one of her favorite Lessig quotes from the debate, "The RIAA is the Recording Industry Association of America. It is not the Recording Industry and Artists Association of America. It says its concern is artists. That's true, in just the sense that a cattle rancher is concerned about its cattle." Ouch.
