		<description><![CDATA[Music not shared is music not heard, and a band not shared basks only in obscurity.  Gene Simmons regrets not having been more vigilant in his marshaling of the RIAA cavalry back in 2007.  A fundamental question is how to monetize an industrialized art form without creating an artificial scarcity that undermines the cultural popularity on which that art form is dependent.  Ars Technica has an article this week highlighting the competing views on how to monetize music in the absence of natural scarcity. <a href="http://weblawg.costinmedia.com/wp/intellectual-property/music-for-a-pound-or-a-pound-of-flesh/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RoB Magazine has declared Apple the victor over Research in Motion in a presumed battle between Cupertino and Waterloo for the smartphone Plains of Abraham. ... I understand that for an investor, the likely more profitable performer in the short term is an important determination; but to pronounce the industry a zero-sum game is foolish. That said, the author raises an important point that if followed in combination with RIM’s existing advantages could shoot it back up to leading Apple around a marketplace of its own design. <a href="http://weblawg.costinmedia.com/wp/communications/rob-magazine-declares-victory-on-the-smartphone-plains-of-abraham/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a state of economic decline - the cold water - companies will shed their appendages to keep whatever oxygen remains for the vital organs. Like the human body, this results in drowning, as without those extremities, the company can no longer manoeuver in the water. Unlike the human body, this relfex is not hard to reprogram. By trimming the oxygen needs of the vital organs, the extremities can be kept functioning until the water warms. <a href="http://weblawg.costinmedia.com/wp/business/how-to-save-a-drowning-business/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
