August 17, 2007SlashdotCory Doctorow points out to Hollywood the danger of failing to adapt. He points out that Napster was the Recording Industry's last bright spot on their charts. Ever since then, it's been doom and gloom. So, maybe suing Youtube/Google isn't such a smooth move for Viacom. Mebbe they should be negotiating, instead. Slashdot thread here. Unlike Doctorow, I thought Napster's strategy was unnecessarily confrontational, but there's no question that the recording industry was stupid (suicidal?) to refuse to negotiate and instead go into bunker mode.
