 Subject: [backstage] Backstage Podcast number 2
 
 Hi All,
 
 Were going to record the next Backstage podcast soon. Unlike 
 last time, we have chosen to be a little more open about what 
 is going to happen. 
 Currently the panel debate is going to explorer the EMI and 
 Apple deal, which didn't fill up the list this time around :)
 
 However this time were looking to dig deep into what affect 
 this has on the long term future of DRM in media.
 
 So currently we have a couple of guests, however...
 1. Who should we get on the podcast?

A visit from upstairs would ad to the cred, so important in a podcast!
Ashley Highfield perhaps?

 2. What subjects would you like us to explorer in the podcast?

I guess it's another angle on the same debate, but I was wondering about how
well the BBC is getting the web 2.0 idea.

There's no technological reason that the BBC couldn't have provided a
wikipedia, youtube or myspace type service, even if by accident.  

But instead the BBC has kept a strange distance from true user generated
content.  I guess the teenager with the £20,000 house party isn't something
the BBC wants on it's conscience.

At the root of this is that backstage.bbc.co.uk has a focus on feeds,
customization and selection and some search.  

With almost every website now allowing both user generated content and
user-user communications how can backstage be brought closer to this model
as it seems not to be a passing fad.

 Also some general things...
 1. Is a hour too long or too short based on the previous podcast?

Way, way too short.  (One vote for that then...)

 2. How would feel about different cut versions? Say full a 
 hour and a 5 min summary?

The famous Martini Media!

 3. Did you share, remix or sample the last podcast?

I shared it quite a lot...  I posted it on the MediaGuardian podcast page
and they seemed to like it. 

 
 Cheers,
 
 Ian Forrester

Pretty unsurprising when you consider that the economics of making music  
(non-orchestral) are rather different from the economics of making a TV
show or a film.

2007-04-17 Thread Tim Cowlishaw

There's a chap called Paul Sanders who is often on the ORG-Discuss list who
could be interesting too... he's a Music Industry-type who also has a wealth
of technical knowledge on these issues, and runs State51 - a digital
distribution comapny. http://www.state51.co.uk/ I've seen him speak at a a
couple of events and he's always thought provoking.

In terms of EMI people, I'd try and get hold of Ruth Katz.. she's head of
'content protection' or some such thing, and is always engaging - she's also
one of the longest serving EMI employees and does a talk for new staff
introducing them to the company, so has a wealth of knowledge about their
particular business.

Otherwise, Michael, Becky or Suw from ORG would be well worth having on
board. Dave Rowntree's also always good - being an anti-DRM musician tends
to add weight to the anti-DRM POV too.

Cheers,

Tim

So looking over the comments,

We're talking about maybe,

1. The EMI guy who worked on the deal
2. A EMI competitor
3. An music artist or producer
4. Dave Rowntree
5. Becky from ORG
6. Another person who knows this area inside out including watermarking
7. A service provider like Last.fm or emusic

Ah that's how the backstage podcast ended up on the media guardian :) And there 
was me thinking they were on the list.

2007-04-17 Thread Richard P Edwards

Sounds great to me Ian. I will be looking forward to this.
Is there any way to include a chat session running live for comment?

You may have seen on Wired that DRM has made it in to being used to  
add legacy to certain products. as if we all need more than Moore  
to determine when something is out of date. This is certainly another  
side of the discussion, applying to both hardware and software.


Some may not have seen, or contemplated, the fact that other  
institutions are also making some effort to defend the rights of an  
odd minority of users .. :-)

Re: [backstage] Backstage Podcast number 2

2007-04-16 Thread Jose-Carlos Mariategui
Bruce Schneier was invited last month to give the keynote at LSE for our
annual Social Study of ICT workshop (SSIT7).

You can view the video here:
http://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/informationSystems/newsAndEvents/2007events
/schneier.htm

I think that it would be much refreshing to have somebody like the people
from last.fm which have a completely different business model.  Stefan
Glaenzer could be the most suitable.


Best,

Jose-Carlos

RE: [backstage] Backstage Podcast number 2 [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

2007-04-16 Thread David Gill


A discussion (even if it's a short one) on watermarking as a anti-piracy
approach for video would be good. The EMI deal is a bit of a
breakthrough for music, but video is not really affected. At the
EMI-Apple announcement Jobs seemed to rather heavily dismiss the idea of
dropping DRM for video anytime soon.  
Watermarking isn't something I am very familiar with, it would be good
to hear some knowledgeable people discussing it in a wider context.
