Copyright Conundrum
June 15th, 2003
The online version of PBS’ NewsHour with Jim Lehrer published a Q&A on copyright with Stanford law prof and copyright activist, Lawrence Lessig, and Matt Oppenheim, senior vice president of business and legal affairs for the Recording Industry Association of America.
Definitely well worth a read. I know I’m biased toward Lessig’s position, but even trying to take that bias into account, it seemed to me that Lessig’s responses were so much more carefully thought out and specific, while Oppenheim’s seemed to simplistic and repetitive.
