Inside.com via MSNBC has a story about the DivX and the DeCSS code’s threat to television. “If
you’ve ever tried to use the demonized DeCSS hacking
software to crack a DVD’s encryption, then compress the file,
then share it over the Net with someone willing to download a
600 MB file, you know that this is strictly for hackers and
hardcore hobbyists. It is no more of a threat to Sony Pictures
than a ham operator is to Clear Channel.
At least not to films. TV? That’s another story.”

ZDNet tries to figure out what’s next with Napster. “The ultimate fate of the controversial technology may hinge on whether it is possible — or
impossible — to effectively police on the labyrinthine networks created by file-swapping software.
Monday’s appellate court ruling ordered Napster to police its networks ‘within the limits of the
system.’ As it has in the past, Napster will likely argue in its next appeal that it is technologically
impossible to conduct this policing at the massive level demanded by the recording studios.”
