Chumbawumba on copy protection

If you’ve been paying attention lately, you know there’s been a bit of a fuss in the world of CDs over the copy-protection schemes the record labels are forcing us to suffer.  It seems that artists don’t want the copy protection crap on their CDs, but of course the recording industry contracts deny most artists the right to decide that.  Not surprisingly, more artists are sharing their opposition to this.  Check out this brief write-up by a member of Chumbawumba speaking against copy protection.

Follow-up on last night’s post

Last night I was finally able to get the the next-gen.biz article I linked to below.  I think, after reading the whole article, that the writer actually intends to say the new Nintendo controller could be a good thing.  I think that, but I’m not really sure.  I don’t find the article all the well written.  Perhaps I’m just not that bright.  Still, if you haven’t read it, please take 5-10 minutes and see what it says.  Then decide if my guess is worth anything or not.
