Thanks M J.  I'm rather looking forward to this show.  I was talking
with one of the researchers this afternoon.  Apparently there'll be
myself, a lawyer, and someone phoning in from some copyright protection
group.

It's great that they thought to ask someone from Free Software to have a
word.  They wanted a "technical" balance on their show, and a talking
head to explain technology and talk about the downside of DRM.  Sounds
like the Legal TV research is pretty progressive and well informed with
regards the current issues in digital copyright land.
