In one corner---
we have Micosoft getting all cosy with the entertainment industry in order to foist DRM into everything. In the other: "One Canadian's Wireless Neighbourhood Network Could Someday Serve Us All".
Unfortunately in our country the very notion that ‘you can get ahead by co-operating as well as by competing’ is one that has been knocked out of us since those heady ’greed is good’, ’every man for themselves’ Thatcherite-driven 80s. So I don’t hold much hope for the latter happening here any time soon.
Meanwhile elsewhere David Byrne and a few like-minded friends put forward a whole new way of looking at music copyright issues. Y'see the main thing the music industry simply doesn't understand is that it's more about the artists and the music -not the money.
