The Pirate’s Dilemma

One more thing on the whole piracy subject, and this one is gonna be short and sweet. I came across this video on the dot-alt blog, and it’s another great addition to the whole debate about piracy, not just in music but in every aspect of society.

This is a video of Matt Mason, the founding editor of Rewind magazine, doing a presentation about his new book ‘The Pirate’s Dilemma’. The video is quite long but really worth it especially if you’re interested in this whole subject. It’s hard not to be drawn in by Matt’s cleverly put together presentation and pretty spot on argument. He doesn’t actually focus on just music piracy, though he touches on it, but draws an interesting parrallel between pirate radios, and pirate movements, and pioneering. It’s definitely on point I think and gives more ammunition to the whole debate.

His book is definitely going to be worth a read.
