Do you think, at some point, we could be liable for charges for singing a song in our heads? And more importantly, what kind of financial disaster is in store for some with a photographic memory after hearing "Who Let the Dogs Out?"
What doesn't make sense, is, to the record companies, what's the difference? Internet broadcasting allows for a larger audience and, possibly, more record sales (or whatever the disk of the year is). At least in the US, you can probably turn on a radio and here the same songs, so who really cares about the source.
It's all about the Man trying to keep the internet down!
Biographies like this one are stories of the true nerd. The guys who could hack before free information was readily available are the true masters. In this day and age, it's so simple to become a "geek" that "geekdom" is hardly anything special. It's just too easy.

Sometimes I hate technology, but the feeling ends once I've figured out a way to exploit it.

As soon as record companies can figure out a way to log dial settings, we'll have to pay to listen to the radio, too.
I'm still trying to figure out the fine line between advertising and a chargeable service. It would seem that record companies blus this edge.
Without books, we'd all be a bunch of rednecks chasing our cousins around the outhouse.

Maybe you're right... *Goes to store and buys WindowsME*
I believe that the name of the failed company was Iridium, not that the satellites actually containded Iridium.
Maybe their problem was in their name choice. It's similar to naming a consulting company "The Devil"
The Devil says we need a new web server!
We're going to launch Iridium satellites into space!br>
At least they didn't name their company "Plutonium".
As a democratic government, it IS their job to do what we "think" is right.
