There is a lot of buzz around about Google’s supposed abandonment of their pro-Net Neutrality position due to what is being called a misleading and poorly reported article in today’s WSJ.

NASA has a website dedicated to the Mars Program. And they have a whole bowl full of games. What are you doing? Get over to Mars.
Over the years I have heard filmmakers, executives, and lawyers profess the need for a public collection agency to work with international/territorial film licensors. The concept is that there would be a neutral party that the licensors pay their contracted fees to, and in return for both collecting these fees and dispersing them out to the contracted parties, the agency takes a small percentage. Although there is no US body doing this on American filmmakers behalf, these collection agencies do exist in other countries. It remains a good idea, but the need has morphed and expanded with all the activity in the DIY distribution arena.
