Slashdot Mirror


David Bowie on Music, Copyrights, Distribution

EddydaSquige writes "In this New York Times article David Bowie talks about his new album, distribution deal with Sony, and how he's "fully confident that copyright, for instance, will no longer exist in 10 years, and authorship and intellectual property is in for such a bashing." Do you think the Bowie machine has the power to make the music industry see the light?"

  1. New York Times article by Henry+V+.009 · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I was surfing nytimes.com right before I clicked onto slashdot. I noticed this article about David Boies on the front page.

    David Boies, you know, the famous lawyer who represented the government against Microsoft, and Al Gore versus Florida.

    So when I read the blurb on slashdot, I figured that someone important had something logical.

    My mistake.

    What's the problem with registering an account? They don't ask for any personal information that you need to enter truthfully, and there's no less than 5 posts in every NY Times story with slashdot/slashdot logins and the like. I really don't see the need for this.
