    Why software and media companies should encourage piracy (sometimes). - Slate Magazine

    I see where the writer is going, but it's not an easy call. This doesn't really work for CDs/books that never have the promise of selling big in the first place...

    Quoted: What should record labels, software giants, & other media companies do about digital piracy? There are two options: Get tough and defend intellectual-property rights with every legal & technological trick in the book, or tolerate some illegal copying in the hope of generating buzz & making money in some other way.

    Amazon.com: The Fifth Discipline: The Art & Practice of The Learning Organization: Books: Peter M. Senge

    I'm reading this book for my digital media course - very well-written. A must-read for you start-up folks!

    Quoted: Peter Senge’s bestseller, The Fifth Discipline, is based on 15 years of experience in putting the book’s ideas into practice. As Senge notes, in the long run the only sustainable competitive advantage is your organization’s ability to learn faster than the competition. Forget your old ideas about leadership. The most successful corporation will be something called a learning organization.
