Even though I was already familiar with the Rolling Stones vs. Verve Pipe hoopla, it felt as if I was hearing the case anew due to the way the sequence was edited – both visually and sonically. However, for me the most powerful section was the film’s final film fifteen minutes in which it opens up the spectrum of copyright to include consideration of laws regarding medicine patents. There’s something interesting about being able to pay what you want (http://www.ripremix.com/getdownloads/) to download the film or to pay a set price through iTunes. What do you think about the different download outlets being available simultaneously at different prices? I seem to recall Kid Rock refusing to put his music on iTunes because he thought their business model was socialist. It seems like there could be something broader to pull out of this by using RiP's release as a case study. I’m glad you mentioned the Rolling Stones and Disney sections of the film.
