Very interesting podcast. I am not a lawyer but it struck me that the value of IP-free industries, such as cookery, magic and fashion, is in large part a combination of the innovative idea, the "ingredients" and the process. In contrast, once a book or piece of music has been created, it can be easily duplicated. So, give me a recipe and you can be sure that I will not create a meal of the same value as a Michelin-starred chef - I lack the process skills, the quality of ingredients, the "tricks of the trade" etc etc. Similarly, give me the instructions for a magic trick and my ham fisted-ness will ensure that I won't be able to replicate the experience for the audience. Ditto re black material and the pattern for a chanel dress - it's not going to happen.

Someone (who hardly actually spoke) had a really bad case of the sniffles during this podcast. You guys should mute your mics if you're not going to speak for awhile. The sniffles outbursts made it very difficult to focus on the discussion.

Thanks for pointing that out, Chuck. I'm not sure who it was, but I'll be sure to keep an ear out for it on future podcasts.

I really wanted to listen to this podcast, but the sound quality was too much to take. I would recommend that one of you acts as the producer and checks sound quality, microphone levels, and for extraneous noise as you record.
The podcasts - Slate, Cato, NPR, Filmspotting - I listen to all have high production levels because no matter how interested someone is in the content, they're not going to listen to 45 minutes of someone sniffling, or cars driving by and beeping outside the window, or static, etc.
