Posted by chrisd on from the dorm-panel dept.

gnat writes "Tucked away on the O'Reilly Mac OS X Conference presentations page are links to Quicktime video and mp3 audio recordings of the Digital Rights Management panel featuring Dan Gillmor of the San Jose Mercury News, Cory Doctorow of the EFF, and others. (My apologies for the sometimes shaky video--three Cokes for breakfast is the anti-steadicam)"

  1. Poor slashdotted videos by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Funny

    I guess I'll browse yesterday's edition instead, and see if anything there is now accessible. Maybe those "sodium in private lake" movies aren't slashdotted anymore.

    You know I'm thinking that linking to a 49MB file from the front page of one of the biggest online community sites on the web may not have been the brightest of ideas.

    I feel a great disturbance in the force... as if many network administrators suddenly cried out in great pain, and were silenced.

    If one lousy key is enough to keep you from buying a Macintosh, then I'm glad you feel it's that important. And Apple isn't "ignoring the Unix market;" it's ignoring YOU...

    As well it should...

  7. Re:The iPod *does* have DRM by linuxpng · · Score: 3, Funny

    Actually, in iTunes 3, it will "organize" files based on mp3 tags, meaning it will rename the file and group it into directories based on id3 tag info. That kind of shoots your whole arguement to hell.
