Grouper, a different form of P2P."The Grouper program
does not allow file sharing of music, only streaming. However, you may
share other types of files as a download. On the plus side for the
persons sharing, Grouper allows the formation of mini networks with
email verification. The advantage of this is no script kiddies or
annoying fake files from the RIAA." You are sharing
privately between friends.

RIAA CDs Start Landing at MLS
RIAA CDs Start Landing at MLS
08/20/2004 02:29 PMOur CDs from the
RIAA settlement have started coming in. We received 367 boxes
yesterday and 503 more today. We're not sure if there will be more,
but it seems likely since someone said we're supposed to get 30,000
CDs. We're still debating the best way to distribute them to our 86
public libraries, so I took the opportunity to browse through some of
the boxes.
For the BMG boxes, I didn't have to open them at all. Each one has
a label on the outside with the titles of the contents on the outside,
30 CDs to a box. If there was ever any doubt that libraries are
receiving bargain bin CDs that couldn't even be sold through "12 for
the price of 1" clubs, let them forever be dispelled now.
Several of the boxes are literally cut on the side, and the cut
goes into the jewel cases themselves. Hence my declaration that we
received a ton of "cut-outs." Some of the boxes even
have dates of 2001 and 2002 posted on the labels, which I hope doesn't
mean the date they were boxed up and put into storage. There is no way
these boxes were packed by mistake as the result of a computer glitch.
Some of the labels very clearly say 30 copies of this or
that title, and I highly doubt the labels were supposed to cut
the boxes after boxing and labeling
them. I posted some pictures of the boxes and CDs as proof
on The Shifted
Librarian Moblog (specifically, here and here).
I'm not sure we're going to do an actual accounting of what we
received, and the record labels certainly aren't providing us with
packing lists (must have been too difficult when you're just shoving
stuff out the door to the UPS truck), so we may never know the extent
to which we helped clean their warehouses of excess stock. I'm not in
on the decision for doing inventory or distribution for our shipment,
so I'll post more when I know how it's going to play out.
<sarcasm>But hopefully we'll have at least a few libraries
that need Whitney Houston's version of "The Star Spangled Banner,"
Denyce Graves' "American Anthem," and Jefferson Airplane's "The Roar
of Jefferson Airplane." Yeah, that definitely makes up for cheating
libraries out of money for all those years.</sarcasm>

01/22/2004 03:09 AMRealizing they'd lost a little momentum after the
Verizon
decision and noticing that
file
sharing is on the rise again, the RIAA still thinks that it can
win the war by making a big publicity splash and suing people. The
latest, is that they've
filed 532 new lawsuits against people
accused of offering music for download through file sharing
networks. Because of the Verizon decision, these lawsuits are all
filed against "John Doe" defendants, and they will now try to get
legal subpoenas from ISPs to find out who these people are. Once
again, this is more of a publicity campaign than a legal campaign, so
it will be interesting to see if more stories of "falsely accused"
people show up again.

Will The RIAA Sue Supernode Operators?
Will The RIAA Sue Supernode Operators?
04/20/2004 04:44 PMEd Felten is reporting that the music industry may be considering
expanding their legal attack on file sharers by
suing
those users whose computers are "supernodes" for file sharing
networks. If you're not familiar with how these file sharing
networks work, they usually try to find a number of users who have
strong connections, and turn them into an ad hoc "hub" of activity for
searching for files. Even if a supernode is used for the search, the
actual exchange of files takes place between the computers that have
and want the files. The legal reasoning is that these supernodes, in
effect, play the same role that Napster's centralized directory server
played - which is why it was deemed illegal, while the next generation
of file sharing programs was called legal since they had no
centralized directory. The RIAA's lawyers realize that they can call
the supernode users "directories" and get them in trouble for the same
reason. Once again, though, if they go through with this, it will be
a case of lawyerly thinking (we can sue and we can win) over business
thinking (what's good for business), which would realize this would
likely be a tremendous public relations nightmare. The main problem
is that most supernode users have no idea they're a supernode. The
system automatically chooses who will act as a supernode. So, you
would have the industry accusing people of breaking the law because
some software on their computer made a choice, and they may not have
actually shared any illegal files at all.
