[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: FINANCIAL TIMES PRENTICE HALL], From Napster to David Bowie and the destruction of the music industry...An expose on the fight over intellectual property. The war over digital piracy and intellectual property is today's #1 technology story -- and it just might be today's #1 culture and entertainment story, too. It's a battle that pits media conglomerates vs. teenagers, artists vs. artists, technology providers vs. content providers, nations vs. nations, Internet service providers vs. entertainment companies, media companies vs. their best customer-and even law enforcement vs. organized crime. Now, best-selling authors John Gantz and Jack Rochester take on the subject from every side: culture, ethics, law, business, and even geopolitics. When it comes to piracy, the world is full of loud, uninformed opinions. This book substitutes fact -- drawn from IDC's unprecedented 58-country survey of digital piracy and its economic impact. You'll travel from the streets of Bangkok to the halls of the U.S. Congress, secret duplicating factories in Paraguay to America's suburban bedrooms. You'll discover what 'fair use' really means, then sort through the morality of digital copying. And you'll hear every side of the debate. Libertarians appalled by the cultural impact of strict copyright law. Media executives fearing for the survival of their businesses. Consumers infuriated by the limitations imposed by giant media firms. Policymakers watching piracy destroy critical export markets for America's creative industries. Finally, the authors offer some real solutions and reasoned compromises that just might work for everyone. Versandfertig in über 4 Wochen, [SC: 0.00], Neuware, gewerbliches Angebot<
