The future of music online ?

Posted in filesharing on October 28th, 2009 by admin – Comments Off

p2pnet news view | P2P | Music:- No need to worry, folks: they’ve got it all figured out. “For years, the music industry has, in the words of Bonnie Tyler, been holding out for a hero,” says the BBC . Thus, “For the industry, this hero must come up with an idea that is great enough to tempt fans away from illegal file-sharing sites, while simultaneously making money for artists, songwriters and record labels.” Tempt fans away from illegal file-sharing sites, eh?

Globe and Mail anti-Canada article debunked

Posted in Software, filesharing on October 22nd, 2009 by admin – Comments Off

p2pnet news view P2P | Politics:- Barrie McKenna (right) often comes across  more as a  spokesman for Hollywood and the Big 4 record labels than the Globe and Mail writer that he is. “Canada has earned a dubious distinction as a world hub for illegitimate file-sharing websites and a leader in Internet piracy,â€? he stated on Tuesday . But actually, Canada hasn’t ‘earned’ anything of the sort, said p2pnet , going on: “The allegation follows relentless junque-posts in the mainstream media planted there by hard-core corporate music lobbyists such as Barry Sookman, quoted in McKenna’s piece as though he (Sookman or McKenna, take your choice) is a credible and reliable source of information.” Sadly, and ironically, it’s left to an Australian, economist Dr Tom Koltai, to point out in detail why assertions by McKenna and Sookman are full of, well, discrepancies.

p2pnet news view Freedom | P2P:- This month marks the one-year anniversary of the launch of Canada’s do-not-call list. Over the past 12 months, millions of Canadians have registered their numbers on the list and filed hundreds of thousands of complaints with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, which is tasked with enforcing the law. While the CRTC has found itself subject to considerable criticism for investigating only a small percentage of complaints and levying just a handful of fines for do-not-call violations, a review of tens of thousands of complaints obtained under the Access to Information Act reveals a potentially bigger problem.

Canadian anti-spam déjà vu

Posted in Software, filesharing on October 5th, 2009 by admin – Comments Off

p2pnet news view P2P | Politics:- The introduction last spring of Bill C-27 — the Electronic Commerce Protection Act — represented the culmination of years of effort to address concerns that Canada is rapidly emerging as a spam haven.  Industry Minister Tony Clement’s anti-spam bill has steadily made its way through the legislative process, with the Standing Committee on Industry likely to conduct its final “clause by clause” review over the next two weeks. Although support for anti-spam legislation would seemingly be uncontroversial, various business groups have mounted a spirited attack against the bill, claiming requirements to obtain to user consent before sending commercial email will create new barriers to doing business online.  The Conservative MPs on the committee have remained supportive of the bill, yet Liberal MPs have expressed growing concern about some of the bill’s provisions. A close examination reveals that the bill sets reasonable limits for online marketing consistent with laws found in countries such as Australia, New Zealand, and Japan.  In fact, there are four major caveats to the consent requirement
