BBC News Player – Gabriel talks music and DRM
Uses Real Player for video. Peter Gabriel looks at DRM, copyright, the future of music and more importantly the future of musicians. He mentions that well-known musicians like him are doing well, but that many musicians who are less well known have seen their income drop by 50-60% in the last few years. That’s true and if it wasn’t for our live-shows I might have to revive my bike-messenger career…

I like the way Gabriel talks about the issues. Worth watching!!

    In this same vein, I’d like to know what Ottmar’s take on DRM and copyright is :::
