aerial, I'll chime in using Zeev's Turnip board.

First, the following is hog-wash. "The Internet's early promise
as a medium where text... and data can be freely exchanged..."

Zeev's Turnip board of the No Politics flavor is totally free to read,
just as one can listen to songs on the radio, all one has to do
is accept the presents of advertisements.

Imagine if i taped the most popular radio station in America
that plays jazz or Rock & Roll, and then erased out the talk,
news and advertisements such that i can play the songs
one after another with only a few seconds pause between each.

I now set up a web site that allows people to listen to this.

Lets say for each real time 24 hours of the radio station i get
12 hours of songs, and i simply repeat each days twice between
the hours of noon to midnight to noon.

I'am sure inside a few days i would be served with legal papers.

But imagine i had a grudge against iHub and did a Cut & Paste
in real time of each post on Zeev's board, and lets say that i have
a good knowledge of the markets such that i am able to echo only
the best posts onto a web site in real time that is free to visit,
and has no advertisements, and all one has to do is place it
upon a dedicated monitor and i will with only one minute delay
post each post and have them scroll off the screen as each is
added from new posts. This way you can trade the markets
in almost real time using the Turnip board's input.

Now BobZ did mention eithor or both places of Si & iHub that
he "allows" a Cut & Paste of posts to other sites just so that
a URL is included. So, each post has the URL included.

But is a song like "not for sale" market chatter open with full access
to the geneal public? Doug

... two-thirds of Americans who swap songs online don't care
whether the music is copyrighted...

Will Web users pay for content?
