http://www.bavc.org/innovationsalon/rsvp.html In the last couple of years, digital rights management has become an ever-more contested issue among corporations, consumers, technology innovators and so-called tech pirates. While a torrent of music companies see greener grass in their decision to sell their tunes DRM-free, the Recording Industry of America continues to pursue lawsuits against indivilawsuits against individuals who rip and share their mp3s online. Does Amazon’s new DRM-free music shop signal the beginning of the end for DRM? Will movies be next? Featuring panelists Jess Hemerly (Institute for the Future), members of I am Spoonbender, Fred von Lohmann (Electronic Frontier Foundation), and Brooke Wentz (The Rights Workshop ). Moderated by Ken Goldberg (Director of the Berkeley Center for New Media). |
