I saw this prelog on last weeks show and I was astonished at the depth of the promo in outlining the real issues faced by the internet, and specifically the WWW. I hate NOW as a show because it seems to obviously predetermined in its presentations, but this issue looks promising.
Unfortunately I had an NYLXS meeting to attend, and I was happy that nearly all our members pounded the phones on the Fair Use issue. This I'll have to wait for a repeat airing unless it is on Channel 25 or 31.
