Synthetic Morpheme Christopher Taylor's editorials on Science, Technology, Salsa dancing and more ![]() The Supreme Court upheld the Sonny Bono Act as being constitutional today in a 7-2 decision [Slashdot]. This is a big win for large media corporations who stood to lose substantial sums of money had the Act been overturned. Unfortunately, this is a loss for everyone else. These same corporations are sitting on tons of media that they refuse to distribute because they don't see any monetary benefit in distributing it. Hundreds of films and other media are locked away in warehouses when they should be available in the public domain. 10:59:48 PM ![]()
