Newspaper epitaph: âWho else is doing it?â
,----[ Quote ]
| But innovation is a dirty word at
| newspapers. When confronted with a
| potentially game-changing idea, the first
| question publishers always ask is, âWho
| else is doing it?â That phrase could well
| stand as the industryâs epitaph.

A Look At All The Sites Owned By Rupert Murdoch That 'Steal' Content
,----[ Quote ]
| As Rupert Murdoch talks about how he wants
| to cut off Google, while claiming that
| aggregator sites are "parasites" and
| "stealing" from him -- and that fair use
| would likely be barred by the courts, it
| seemed like a good time to examine at least
| some of the sites that are owned by Rupert
| Murdoch that appear to aggregate content
| from other sites and which rely on the very
| same fair use argument. We've mentioned a
| few in the past, but figured it wouldn't
| hurt to explore them more thoroughly.

As Hollywood Insists Canada Is A Den Of Copyright Thieves, Movie Business Is Thriving
,----[ Quote ]
| For years, Hollywood has pushed a totally
| ridiculous claim that Canada is somehow a
| den of copyright thieves, and it needs to
| make its copyright laws much more strict.
| This fantasy has worked on journalists and
| politicians, who insist that the movie
| industry is dying in Canada due to rampant
| piracy. Except someone forgot to inform the
| real world. An anonymous reader sends over
| the news that the owners of Cineplex in
| Canada are reporting record box office
| sales and revenue, even with the current
| economic downturn.

Audio Rippers and Encoders in Ubuntu Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| The application you use to rip audio files from CD and encode them into
| space-saving MP3 or Ogg Vorbis formats is commonly referred to as a ripper.
| For some time now, the most commonly used nonâcommand-line ripper was Grip,
| which still has its dedicated following. Other simpler-to-use rippers,
| however, have surfaced more recently, such as RipperX, Goobox, and the one
| that comes bundled with Ubuntu: Sound Juicer.
