Free Lessig Audio Book

I’ve always thought it was interesting that the open source community is a fan of Larry Lessig. Did they choose him or did he choose them? Nevertheless, in the day of the DMCA, every geek needs a good lawyer; and while I haven’t studied Lessig’s work enough to make conclusions, he raises some interesting points. (I have listened to Free Culture.)

This may be old news, but last month Stephen Manes of Forbes.com wrote “Let’s Have Less Of Lessig”. Mr. Manes raises some interesting points, but it’s difficult to get over his “he’s an idiot” presentation; but it did get me to Forbes.com, which I presume it Manes’s chief end rather than really understanding the implications of the DMCA.
