Can Internet Radio Survive?

Posted by timothy on from the tough-row-to-hoe dept.

He discusses some of the effects of the recent CARP recommendations (previously discussed on /. here). We all know the DMCA is bad, but this seems to be a particularly good example of where its broad nature is curbing reasonable web uses."

    No.

    So why doesn't CARP just give it up and rename themselves CRAP? Although the differences between the scum-sucking fish and raw human waste are negligible, with these kinds of rulings and recommendations, I think CRAP would more accurately represent the organization.

    I'm going to lose another karma point for posting this, but thanks for backing me up. It's rediculous. And what's up with this:

    "Due to excessive bad posting from this IP or Subnet, comment posting has temporarily been disabled. If it's you, consider this a chance to sit in the timeout corner. If it's someone else, this is a chance to hunt them down. If you think this is unfair, please email jamie@mccarthy.vg with your MD5'd IPID and SubnetID, which are "b86c7aa68a0c9066d487324921be3932" and "df0c977b531eb2c6afce1d422b3c6d9b" and (optionally, but preferably) your IP number "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" and your username "kasper37"."

    WTF? Excessive bad posting. How 'bout excessive bad moderation.
