Neither side is innocent here. In fact, I can't see why anyone is particularly sympathetic to either side.MikeTSat, 20 May 2006 16:24:14 -0000http://techliberation.com/2006/05/19/more-on-underdogs-and-net-neutering/#comment-1445925When you apply the same "underdog argument" to the issue of DRM, for example, you see technology and software companies falling over each other to satisfy the content industry, despite the content industry being orders of magnitude smaller than the technology and software industries.
