Note that there's an Op-Ed piece by Kembrew McLeod that's related 
topic-wise to the already-mentioned (in the previous msg entitled "P2P: 
Don't Beat Them, Join Them") column. See below.

Today's NYTimes has two op-eds, one by William Fisher, one by Kembrew
McLeod, on alternative compensation models for content.  Fisher talks 
about
file sharing in the context of history of VCR, web radio, etc., while
McLeod talks about the EFF content licensing model.  Neither are new
viewpoints; I am pointing to the op-ed because it is significant that a
major U.S. paper is giving these (anti-RIAA) ideas such coverage.
