AOL T-W & Intel Issue 'Joint Statement of Principles'

morgue-ann writes: "AOL Time-Warner and Intel have released their Joint Statement of Principles in response to recent hearings in the Sentate Judiciary and Commerce Committees (Leahy/Hatch & Hollings/Stevens). The cover three issues: the broadcast flag, the analog hole and p2p. The first two are nearly a given for the CE and content industries even though they threaten fair use rights of HDTV PVRs (when/if they're developed), but on the third, they agree that 'No single silver bullet solution - technical, legal, legislative, or business - exists to address this thorny form of piracy.' and call for 'Active co-operation and participation of all sectors--content, CE, IT, service providers, and government--will be necessary to develop a range of solutions to this complex problem.'"
