Disseminating Research Results
It seems we're not getting the word out about our research enough: Dvorak, John C. Academics: Get to Work! We need sociological studies about the Net and computers. February 21, 2006. http://tinyurl.com/k7vw6 http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1928970,00.asp Intro: "Universities have got to focus their attention on computers and the Internet. There are far too many understudied phenomena bubbling on the Net, and it's time for academia to wake up. Valuable time is being wasted." Ingbert Floyd PhD Student Graduate School of Library and Information Science University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign -- ========================================== Check out the unofficial GSLIS Wiki: http://www.gslis.org/ Tell me what you think, if you find it useful, or if you have any ideas for how to organize it better. And if you feel comfortable doing so, I heartily encourage you to contribute content! This GSLIS is the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign.
I used to work in the computer publishing industry and, since I follow computers, still read some of the pubs on occasion. Dvorak is... well I have nothing nice to say about him. A windbag. A troll (in the Internet sense). He is always right, never wrong (in his opinion), and although yes he knows some things many feel he doesn't do any research about the topics he writes on anymore, he is just cruising on his laurels (to mix metaphors). We may not be getting word out about our work, but once Dvorak has made up his mind about something, nothing else really matters. He's a journalist (marginally), and he refuses to even do basic research about the topics he covers. Shameful. Quoting Ingbert Floyd <ifloyd2@gmail.com>:

In the comments of the story, he tries to justify himself Man, there are a lot of contradictory posts on this topic!! That said I'd
love to go to the Google Scholar and see what's what. I can decode most of the BS having taken a lot of sociology in college myself. The problem is that almost everything in Google Scholar is locked down to everyone unless they are a professor from a school subscribing to the service. And I'm adverse to spending a lot of money to look through the library. I suppose I could go over to Berkeley and go on the system on campus, but that's a hassle. I'd love to read some of this research. Anyone with contacts or suggestions as to how I can get into these closed "stacks" send me an email at john@dvorak.org ( http://discuss.pcmag.com/forums/2/1004306354/ShowPost.aspx#1004306354)
Doing proper research is apparently a hassle! On 2/24/06, natpoor@umich.edu <natpoor@umich.edu> wrote:

Hi Can anyone clarify for me when it's legal/illegal to download music from the internet. I've just checked out sites like http://www.mp3musichq.com/me/index.asp?source=guks-03&kw=limewire which say that it's legal as long as you follow the copyright rules. I have also read articles saying that some companies are releasing stuff by up and coming bands for promotional reasons, that is free to download online. But, the stuff on sites like limewire is more far reaching than just new/promotional. I had assumed that if you didn't pay for it it was illegal. But having interviewed many 14 year olds about it this week, this is clearly not their understanding. Thanks for your help. Sue
it depends on the individual track as to whether it is illegal or not. there is quite a bit of perfectly legal downloadable music on archive.org, http://www.archive.org/details/audio and record companies and artists do release individual tracks off albums for free and some people, like Loca http://www.locarecords.com/ index2.html , release whole albums freely l, or under special license like creative commons, or open content. however, you have to be aware of whether those are licensed or just copyrighted and whether there are modifications to the terms, etc. etc. however, i do find the intuition that 'if you didn't pay, it is illegal' to be very interesting, because that is the intuition that record companies try to promote in the u.s. John Logie gave an interesting paper about that in Chicago . On Feb 25, 2006, at 8:56 AM, Sue Cranmer wrote:

EFF has a good synopsis of copyright matters involving music downloading online at: http://www.eff.org/cafe/drmgame/copyright-faq.html It's based primarily, if not entirely, on U.S. copyright law, and is, as these things typically are, not a substitute for one's own decisionmaking, but more of a guide to understanding how to evaluate what is and what is not legal.

Hi Sue, Many weeks ago, a parent wrote to me at WISE KIDS because the British Phonographic Industry have issued her with a fine, for her son's use of Limewire. She thought that Limewire was a legitimate service, as they had been paying 'subscription' charges. A good site with information on copyright and downloading music is http://www.pro-music.org, a resource site for news and information about legitimate music online. Another is http://www.musicunited.org/ Childnet and Pro-Music have also produced a leaflet on Young People, Music and the Internet.

Hello everyone, for me, Sue, it would be very useful this "compilation" of the informtion about downloading music. I'm writing my final thesis about netlabels or online labels, where musicians upload their music and users can download them for free. The musicians perform their music live to make a little money. I´m still looking for literature about netlabels or online labels...Does anybody know something?

Hi Antina, Not sure how relevant this link is to your query, but have a look at it: http://www.weedshare.com/help/artist/ Also, on a separate note, Mercora IM Radio is an interesting service that I only recently learned about: www.mercoranetworks.ca/overview.asp. In its blurb it says that it "connects you to the world's largest and legal music radio network powered by people...")

I thought they read like industry-backed sites, meaning they are very one-sided. In the US, these people are determined to hegemonically destroy fair use. Personally, I find them very evil. Their approach is to broad-brush the issue of copying, so that all copying of *any sort* is illegal and immoral. (I have trimmed most of the thread so it won't go over the 10k limit, which happened twice yesterday.) On Feb 26, 2006, at 6:22 AM, Sue Cranmer wrote:
Hi These sites look very useful, particularly as they stem from closer to home. I shall have a proper look later this week but in the meantime, thanks!

Hi Sue,
Many weeks ago, a parent wrote to me at WISE KIDS because the British Phonographic Industry have issued her with a fine, for her son's use of Limewire. She thought that Limewire was a legitimate service, as they had been paying 'subscription' charges.
A good site with information on copyright and downloading music is http://www.pro-music.org, a resource site for news and information about legitimate music online.
Another is http://www.musicunited.org/
Childnet and Pro-Music have also produced a leaflet on Young People, Music and the Internet. See http://www.childnet-int.org/music/
Best, Sangeet

In Canada I think the federal court ruled last year that music sharing is similar to photocopiers in libraries and thus not a crime. But then Canada wouldn't allow patenting of the onco mouse either.
