Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers


Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers
02/13/2004 05:52 AM
One of the struggles that companies have as distribution and sales mechanisms change is handling legacy channel conflict issues. Dell became huge by selling direct to customers, but when rival Compaq started to move in that direction, their retail partners freaked out - and Compaq had to scale back their plans. It appears that book publishers are now going through the same process. They've realized that if someone is looking for info about certain books on their site, it makes sense to also offer them a chance to buy it. However, it's pissing off retailers, who don't want to hear that their suppliers are competing with them. Retailers say a reasonable compromise would be having the publishers point to the retailers, which was my first response as well. However, then it becomes a political situation of who do you link to and why? There's also the fact that this makes for a less enjoyable consumer experience. I know that, more than once, I've been annoyed at online sites where I go for info on buying a product, but when I try to buy am given a big list of retailers instead of a way to buy right away.

Intellectual Property industries?


Intellectual Property industries? 04/09/2004 04:03 PM
This Department of Justice press release announcing the creation of an Intellectual Property Task Force is an amazing example of the extremist rhetoric that has come to dominate discussion of digital content protection.  Yes, those who create digital goods are entitled to compensation, and violating intellectual property rights, like speeding, is against the law.  But the way this issue is being cast as a challenge to our way of life is just excessive and counter-productive. 

My favorite is the statement that "
Intellectual property industries play a significant role in the American economy."  What exactly is an "intellectual property industry?" More to the point, what isn't?  I doubt Wal-Mart would be very successful if others could copy its name in misleading ways, or could reprint its newspaper ads with higher prices. 

Of course, that's not what the press release is talking about.  The term is intended to redefine industries built around creative acts (like the music business) as industries based on exclusive formalizations of past creativity.  Larry Lessig and others have said this better than I can, but the point remains important.  Countless small rhetorical shifts have brought us to a point where the discourse around intellectual property is wildly foreign to our professed values.  Are our heros the pioneers who charted new territory... or the land speculators who came later?

What UK's copyright industries are up to


What UK's copyright industries are up to 06/17/2005 03:34 PM
Cory 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.

Craigslist and cottage industries


Craigslist and cottage industries 02/01/2005 09:26 PM

In NYC, when you don't have a car and you need to move stuff that won't fit in a taxi and isn't enough that you need an entire huge moving van, you call a "man with a van".** I recently used the services of a guy named Paul, recommended by a friend of a friend. After packing the back of his truck with my things, we set off for our destination, chatting along the way. He asked me how I'd found him and we eventually got to talking about craigslist.

Paul told me that these days, he got most of his jobs from CL and only one or two a week from personal referrals. I found that surprising and when I pressed him further, he told me that because of CL, he's been able to do pursue moving (which he really likes doing) as a full-time career. I can't remember the exact quote, but Paul said something to the effect that he can't believe he's getting away with starting a full-time business on CL without it costing him a single dime.

I'd never really thought about it before, but in some ways, CL helps lots of people build businesses cheaper and more effectively than more "robust", complex, and expensive enterprise software solutions. Movers are just one example. CL can help you find employees for your business. If you've got a van, you can pick up free furniture and electronics around the city, fix or refurbish, and sell it. You can start a business doing computer troubleshooting, piano lessons, buying and fixing up old motorcycles, or escort and sensual massage services. And if you need something done for your business but don't have the money to pay for it, you can always barter goods or services in exchange. These are just the obvious examples. Does anyone know of anyone using craigslist in more creative ways to make a living or other examples of people succeeding in business using CL?

** Don't know how this evolved, but folks in the "man with a van" profession like to rhyme the names of their businesses. My guy was "Call Paul to Haul", but you will also probably find "Chuck/Buck with a Truck", "Cory with a Lorry", "Schmuck with a Truck", "Call Jack to Pack", and so on. (Oh, I'd recommend using Paul if you need a man with a van...contact me if you'd like his info.)

Canadian copyfight hots up: Liberal MPs
on the take from copyright industries?
06/14/2004 09:01 PM
Copyright has become an election issue in Canada, and with the federal election looming on the 28th (I've cast my absentee ballot, for Olivia Chow, and have my fingers crossed for a nation run as well as Toronto was under Jack Layton) the copyfight is heating up back in my homeland. Most recently, a Liberal MP from my old riding of Parkdale introduced a poorly thought-out bill that would have been bad news for the Internet. Michael Geist wrote an editorial about this in the Toronto Star, and the fallout has been intense, with letters going back and forth in the paper. Michael's written a followup editorial that the Star just ran.
Further, copyright reform proceedings must also be perceived to be balanced. According to Elections Canada, Bulte and her riding association have accepted thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from rights holder groups and broadcasters. Parliamentarians involved in the copyright reform process should refuse all such contributions to ensure that the perception of absolute impartiality is preserved.
