"We’ve been listening to the conversations today regarding a “ban” on the use of Creative Commons music in our podcasts and want to take the opportunity to clarify some of the misconceptions that are floating out there.
The CBC has always embraced new ways of creating and sharing the content we make (in fact, shows like Spark and previously Search Engine were some of the first in Canada to use this type of music license in their programming), however, just like you, we must do so in a way which respects the limits put on that use by the music's creators.
The issue with our use of Creative Commons music is that a lot of our content is readily available on a multitude of platforms, some of which are deemed to be “commercial” in nature (e.g. streaming with pre-roll ads, or pay for download on iTunes) and currently the vast majority of the music available under a Creative Commons license prohibits commercial use.
In order to ensure that we continue to be in line with current Canadian copyright laws, and given the lack of a wide range of music that has a Creative Commons license allowing for commercial use, we made a decision to use music from our production library in our podcasts as this music has the proper usage rights attached.
Everyone can rest easy-- there are no “groups” setting out to stop the use of Creative Commons music at the CBC, and we will continue to use Creative Commons licensed music, pictures etc. across a number of our non-commercial platforms.
You seem to imply I am part or the "rich", I am not.
"You advocate that you steal from me under cover of law and give it to the underclass so that they won't rob you. I suppose because I have so much less to lose?"
I do not advocate anything, I'm just stating a fact.
"infrastructure and welfare systems designed to make unequal people more equal."
Welfare is to protect the middle class and the rich, not the poor.
If there was no welfare, they would steal the rich and middle class stuff and start a revolution , the middle class is paying welfare for their own and the rich security and social stability.
Not OK with me, it prevents him from understanding why this guy as all this money and not him.
If he KNEW why instead of believing it's the way it is because some fairy decided "let it be so" then that would make one less sheep and social change would be closer. Cause he'd be pissed.
Which is why I said code in a database. As in, the serial number is not related to the unlock code by an algorithm, it is simply randomly generated every time and stored in a database, that is, there is simply an entry in some database on Intel's website that says "This unlock code goes with this serial number" " "
How does the cpu know you provided the right unlock code if it cannot be calculated from the serial number?
There is just one way, store it too on the cpu.
This would be broken even faster that an algorithm.
Slashdot Mirror
but i fully agree on you way of counting votes. Even those who go to the booth to abstain are not reported.
Legitimacy as nothing to do with the number of votes, it depends on the size of the army and police that you can control.
You're in the USA, why doesn't she sue?
If she can document that and prove it, surely one of the 923 432 432 lawyer you have over there will be happy to take that case.
except that the libraries are written in C++ too...
And Rock 'n Roll will never die.
You do not know anyone in power then.
"Why do we remain in the virtual dark ages, when clearly we have better alternatives readily available?""
Better for who? The answer ti this will give a hint of why...
Sheesh, you sound so much not ignorant, I am in awe.
oops, someone beat me to it, mod me into redundancy's oblivion
Here is what the CBC as to say about this:
Chris Boyce the Programming Director at CBC Radio just issued a statement on the tread located:

It reads:

These number come out of you ass?
3) world-war 2 (assuming you don't count "national socialism" as socialis, which it is, of course)
national socialism was corporatism not socialism
don't be fooled by the name.
"Socialism has killed more people than any other idea in the history of human civilization."
No, that would nationalism.
