  1. NOT a boycott, NOT a censorship case. on Creative Boycotts CeBit Over MP3s · · Score: 1
    Get the facts straight before screaming "censorship". Please.


    CeBIT is a business-, not a consumer-oriented trade show, or at least the makers want it to be. Since Creative's plans involved (again) to have a very large, very loud booth praising their consumer-devices, CeBIT told them they couldn't do that. That specifically. Creative pulled out entirely, and booked IFA instead.


    CeBIT has since changed its mind, but Creative don't want to change their plans again, understandably enough.
