The Creative Librarian is a hub for matters important to librarians/information scientists of today. There is a definite lean towards electronic issues, however it isn’t restricted to only those. Hopefully this site will also be useful for informing non-librarians on these issues as so many of them affect us all.

DVD cartel sued under anti-trust

Boing Boing: DVD licensing cartel sued under anti-trust

The cartel that controls patents on DVD technologies is being sued by Chinese DVD makers, who are ebing forced to pay $20 per player, much higher than US manufacturers pay. The DVD makers have a good anti-trust case that could seriously bust this cartel.

I’d be happier about this if I really believed it would do any good.
