I was also very quite impressed with the movie.<BR/><BR/>It may be easier to get smaller fish on the other side of the issue. I know that recently Lily Allen has criticized Radiohead for the way they chose to release their latest album, comparing not paying to download music to not paying for eggs.<BR/><BR/>It's a shame that this post won't pop up again for non-RSS users. I think it would also be useful, if possible, to configure blogger to show the date of comments along with the time.<BR/><BR/>ajAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12505562.post-89268981535135942532007-11-18T20:51:00.000-05:002007-11-18T20:51:00.000-05:00Thanks, Henrik, I will revise the post to take int...Thanks, Henrik, I will revise the post to take into account your helpful insights. I do indeed have a contact through which I will try and get you an interview with Prince.

We did not want to spend weeks on this as he is rather a "past" figure in the debate. <BR/><BR/>Re: Danger Mouse. Let me just put it this way. It was EXTREMELY difficult to get ANYTHING - maybe because he is now established and can do what he wants. We know some people who know him and managed to track him down at the MTV awards in Copenhagen, but he does NOT want to board the subject. <BR/>Apparently there is some sort of non-disclosure agreement going on too. We were lucky to find some archive material and liked the irony of the Tecno Brega DJ doing to Danger Mouse what he did to Beatles. <BR/><BR/>In general it was hard to get any artists to speak - especially the pro-copyright / more established types. I guess it's a touchy subject, and most would rather avoid going on the record and possibly looking stupid a few years from now (Ulrich comes to mind!). <BR/><BR/>There is a strange thing going on now with lawyers in the same media corporation suing filesharers and PR people two doors down leaking files to P2P networks because they know it is essential for sales. We tried to show this Good Cop Bad Cop thing with the film. We did this with a very limited budget and I am rather pleased with what came out of it. <BR/><BR/>Prince? Get us an interview and we´ll consider a Good Copy Bad Copy part II :) <BR/><BR/>HenrikHenrik Moltkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03475753856719291676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12505562.post-6970134861519647382007-11-18T20:07:00.000-05:002007-11-18T20:07:00.000-05:00Thanks, Henrik.

There have been some artists who have been quite vocal, Lars Ulrich being a prime example. in the UK, there were quite a number who came out in favor of term extension. Prince is another example.William Patryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12987498082479617363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12505562.post-89183471582615383482007-11-18T19:52:00.000-05:002007-11-18T19:52:00.000-05:00"one side consistently appears appealing and the o..."one side consistently appears appealing and the other stiff at best. Is there, for example, no artist on the content owners' side with the charisma of Danger Mouse who could have made the pitch for that side?"<BR/><BR/>Believe me, we did try to find them. <BR/><BR/>Who would you recommend?Henrik Moltkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03475753856719291676noreply@blogger.com
