Its 2009…deal with it authors guild!

Monday, March 9, 2009

Its 2009, deal with it…thats what I have to say to the authors guild. I have nothing against getting paid for your work. I do however have a real problem with trying to artificially segment the rights to such work, in a way that completely ignores the reality of the world we live in. The RIAA is slowly coming to the realization that I am not going to pay for a song to play at home, and again pay to hear it in my car, now its time for the book industry to get with the century as well.

I also talk about why being right and true, doesn’t mean your free from a lawsuit. How a P2P application was installed onto a top-secret laptop with all kinds of top-secret details on the presidential helicopter, and now all the blueprints and such are in Iran. How the Winston man has died…of throat cancer, and just how anticipation works in the brain (not the ketsup bottle). The first rule of McNuggets is you ain’t getting your Mcnuggets, and the car Mike wants to take to the drive through. I’ll touch on how to get a crocodile lost, and why the pendulum has again swung the wrong way in the case of give me your password or else. Plus a little Flickr news. All that and more on this weeks show!
