The BBC wants YOU
p2p news / p2pnet: Following the BBC’s Big Music Q&A file sharing fiasco, it’s now setting up for another disaster. So here’s your chance to make sure the right questions get asked – hundreds of them.
The BBC’s new virtual panel of experts includes another totally unbalanced crew, namely:
- The MPAA’s (Motion Picture Association of America) Dan ‘Jedi’ Glickman
- Lavinia Carey, director general of the British Video Association (BVA)
- Curt Marvis, chief executive of CinemaNow, billed as the “leading legal movie download service”
- John Fithian, president of the National Association of Theatre Owners, which represents US cinemas.
“We will post a range of questions here and pick the eight most common and important ones to be answered by the panel,” says the Beeb, adding:
“A similar panel recently answered questions about digital music …”
And what a total cock-up that was.
“… and a broadcasting panel will be assembled in the coming weeks.
So —->
(Thanks, Phil)
And stay tuned, of course ; )

I would like to ask the panel, do they think it would be a much healthier environment for musicians and fans alike if we gassed the lot of you?
