Techdirt: Copyright Is About Incentives, Not Protection

Techdirt: Copyright Is About Incentives, Not Protection

I'm growing tired of big money's campaigns to over-extend copyright - and decry "piracy!" - when the public has simply shifted from sharing what they listen to through a digital medium rather than on the analogue cassette tapes of previous decades. We've always shared music - encouraging discovery and promoting future purchases, with recordings from the FM radio put into mix tapes for friends, etc.

Mad Men on AMC in HD

I've been sold on AMC's "Mad Men" series... Damn Comcast OnDemand. I got to watch 6 or so episodes in the weekend last.
Beautifully shot and scored... breathing "the 50's", but everyone smokes constantly... even the pregnant women. Great colloquial period dialog.
