DRM is already widely deployed without a hint of success and the NAVSHP group has the opportunity to learn from its well-known failures, ... NAVSHP should take a new look into how DRM affects the public, artists, and industry.
More Quotes from Cory Doctorow:
I think that this misses out on some of the interesting narrative realities, which is that it actually doesn't work very well, that eliminating diversity is actually a really good way to make a species and its individuals less robust.Cory Doctorow
It does the thing that all great non-fiction needs to do makes a subject interesting because of how it's covered, not because of the subject itself. I don't care about French food but I loved this book.

It's a story of little girls who are pressed into working in sweat shops in games, who spend all day doing repetitive grinding tasks like making shirts, which are then converted into gold and sold on eBay.

My feelings towards Scott Card are pretty mixed. Politically, he and I are pretty far apart.

Has it been a success though, I ask. I don't know, ... I don't have another first novel that wasn't pushed electronically to compare it to. But the book itself is doing very well. Looking at other publishers, a good example is Baen Books , who do a lot of multi volume series of books. From experience, they know how much volume 13 should sell based on the sales of boook 12. So when volume 13 comes out, they bundled a CD-Rom with eBook versions of the first 12 books. They also hosted these eBooks online for free. When this happens, the sales of volume 13 were beyond expectation, and volumes 1 through 12 see a bump in sales as well.

And I love Mel Brooks. My Dad loved his movies, too, they're awesome, the kind of thing that if you're in for ten minutes, you're in for two hours.
