[dvd-discuss] Lessig's blog and other links...

[microlenz(at)earthlink.net]

Larry Lessig's October Blog has some interesting discussion.

One less interesting is the link to Prof. Marci Hamilton's piece

While thought provoking from a political viewpoint, the arguments are less so. 
Prof. Hamilton has ignored the crux of the argument and substituted an 
abreviated version- the proverbial strawman. As Lessig put it "Today he sent me 
this piece by Professor Marci Hamilton which concludes that "Mickey has the 
better of the argument." But I wonder whether Mickey would have the better 
argument if the real arguments that we make are considered. " A rather tactful 
PUBLIC response.
