A great discussion concerning the implications of Lessig releasing his latest book, Free Culture: How Big Media Uses Technology and the Law to Lock Down Culture and Control Creativity, under a Creative Commons License.

It began like any other weekend. Just casually readin’ the blogs. Then I stumbled on this post from AKMA wondering if anyone wanted to read and record a chapter of Lawrence Lessig’s new book, Free Culture, which is available for free download under a Creative Commons license. 48 hours later, most of the book was available as MP3 downloads with just a few chapters left to be uploaded.
