with satellite uplinks. Oddly, the article says that GNER has already
run successful trials, but then notes that if this trial is successful
(?), GNER will add service to 10 diesel and 30 electric trains. The
article says pricing for passengers and availability in
non-first-class cars hasn't yet been set....

What UK's copyright industries are up to
What UK's copyright industries are up to
06/17/2005 03:34 PMCory Doctorow:
The BBC's Matt Locke has written a great report on yesterday's meeting
on copyright in the UK that was held by a minister who is reported to
have called for extending copyright on performances to the performer's
life plus
one hundred years.
Adam Singer gave a response from the stage that was full of fantastic
rhetoric, describing the emerging market for 3D printers as a
harbinger of a world in which all creative IP is under threat from
piracy: "It doesn't matter if the button says 'print' [in reference to
3D printers] or 'burn' - all design will become simply a file to be
shared". He saw strong IP as the "intellectual hygiene of a networked
world", suggesting that IP law should be taught as the "new domestic
science" in schools, as it was the most important future skill for
creative entrepreneurs. His rhetoric, although very entertaining, was
from the dystopian end of the telescope - "each time bandwith
increases, another industry will fall [because of IP theft]". You
could try to unpick all the false assumptions in that last sentence,
but frankly, its not worth it. Just sit back and bask in the warm glow
of his fire and brimstone. In fairness, Adam Singer is far more
measured and informed than the above quotes suggest (despite
describing Lawrence Lessig as the "Martin Luther of copyright" that
the music industry had failed to burn...), but he's a great public
speaker, and it's his job to provoke.
I asked a question to the panel about the kind of industry trends that
the DCMS were looking into when developing new IP models for the
creative industries. Writers like Henry Chesbrough and Eric Von Hippel
have documented trends in 'old' industries like Pharma and Engineering
towards 'open innovation' models. Emerging best practise is to
maximise your return from IP through a range of licensing models
outside your own company, moving from old models of patent enforcement
to open licensing models with peer companies and even Von Hippel's
'Free Revealing', where IP is given up in order to drive other
competitive advantages.
