Media Guardian has a relevant article on the subject today (registration quite 
possibly required):

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/apr/12/digital-economy-bill-households-piracy

The claim that the biggest media groups already avoid suing their customers is 
particularly interesting, I think.

I'm looking forward to Madonna or Disney explaining why they are cutting off
school children from their primary learning source.  A few months of no
proper internet will clearly harm a child ... even if they were not the
actual "illegal downloader".

I picked this up on Twitter...

*http://twitter.com/digitalmaverick*
> We teachers of ICT & schools themselves are about to have a MASSIVE 
burden placed on us IMHO when #debill 
 becomes law


I have also found this...

http://www.jisclegal.ac.uk/ManageContent/ViewDetail/tabid/243/ID/1234/Digital-Economy-Bill-Copyright-Infringement-Measures-22012010.aspx

Since the Digital Economy Bill affects "illegal downloads" is it 
possible that Universities will have a problem, with materials used by 
students being a technical breach of the new law. Would this result in 
"disconnection" for a University or a school? For example, a book, part 
of book or another text that is covered by a copyright is often 
"downloaded" and then used by a student.

I'm still quite confused as to what's going on with -
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00rzk4b/House_of_Commons_07_04_2010/
- it claims to be 7 hours long - which should include some of the DEB
footage, but in fact its less than 2 hours long. What accounts for
this discrepancy?

Might have been - just tried from work (Easynet connection) and it's worked
fine. Same from home connection (Be Pro).

On contemplation, it didn't even play the BBC Parliament ident... Perhaps
there was something wrong with the preroll? Anyway, working now.

Cheers. Also, on the HoC footage from last night -
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00rzk4b - the programme won't actually

(directed firstly towards iPlayer-knowledgeable Beeb staff but is an open

Frustratingly only the first hour or so of today's House of Commons coverage is 
available on the iPlayer's primary entry for today, with no more footage 
forthcoming it would seem. (current episode:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00rzjy6/House_of_Commons_06_04_2010/ )

I've also seen the DEB's dedicated entry on the DemocracyLive site:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/hi/house_of_commons/newsid_8597000/85971
25.stm - but again, it's only a 2 hour stream from the start of the DEB debate. 
Today's debate lasted for well over six/seven contiguous hours - right up until 
10pm from approx. 3pm (after the 10 Minute Rule first reading). Particularly 
given the importance of this Bill, might we be able to watch the whole of the 
first debate online eventually or is it never going to show up?
