„But really, don't you think that's just too much napsterization for all concerned? I mean, we can take the complete disruption of the music industry, cause it was a mess anyway, and really it was time for some change in that biz model, but I'm not sure we need to watch a movie about the making of the code by Mr. Fanning, et al.“http://napsterization.org/stories/archives/ 2002_12.html#000005 - Cached

„(Because the experiments are artistic projects in their own right, they may not violate copyright law.) In an editing tour de force, the Swiss artist Christian Marclay combined over 600 sound and film clips from over a hundred classic movies to create an intense, 15-minute musical composition, synchronized over four 10-foot screens. In preparing the work, which was commissioned by SFMOMA and the Grand Museum of Luxembourg, and exhibited in New York at the Paula Cooper Gallery, Mr. Marclay didn't bother to pursue the rights to any of those films.“http://napsterization.org/stories/.../ cat_computing_search_software.html#000010 - Cached

„I'm very happy with it, but my last PDA (a Visor Edge from Handspring) had a synching cradle for my work computer and my home computer. I found this very convenient for managing my data at home in the evening as well at work. So I wanted to get a Zire synch cable for home.“http://www.starchamber.com/archives/ 2002_12.html - Cached
„The Master Narrative in Journalism: "Were'wining' to somehow be removed or retired as the operating system for news, campaign reporting would immediately become harder to do, not because there would be no news, but rather no common, repeatable instructions for deciding what is a key development in the story, a turning point, a surprise, a trend. Master narratives are thus harder to alter than they are to apprehend. For how do you keep the story running while a switch is made?"

„CDCovers.cc, the "world's largest CD cover site", announced on their site that the RIAA has forced them to remove all cover art for CD's. CD Covers is a "profit free organization that runs on voluntary basis" hosting covers for games, software, audio (formerly) and video products. It appears that they make the covers available for printing, as they also offer some special free formating software.“http://journalism.berkeley.edu/projects/biplog/archive/ 2002_11.html - Cached
„While music and movies are vastly different pastimes, NPD analyst Russ Crupnick argues that the decline in CD sales is increasingly attributable to the rapid rise in DVD sales. (Similarly, many publishers believe the lure of inexpensive DVDs, available in big chains like Borders, has eaten into book sales.) Researchers note that purchases and rentals of movies and music, along with videogames, typically come out of the same household budget for entertainment, so an increase in one can have a direct impact on the other.“http://www.corante.com/copyfight/archives/ 002787.html - Cached

„The PCs come with CD and DVD writers and lots of disk space and processor power, and the operating system has a large-format interface and remote control functionality to control all media applications. The system also has PVR capabilities; just as with TiVo and ReplayTV, users can select a lineup of television shows to record and watch later. There's one big difference between the Windows PVR and stand-alone devices like ReplayTV: On a PC, you can do a lot more of the things Hollywood hates.“http://www.theshiftedlibrarian.com/2002/12/ 09.html#a3161 - Cached
