1. Next, what is the argument made in Laura Sydel's audio segment Musicians Look For Pay In An MP3 World?
The argument made in Laura Sydel’s segment was that if people are downloading their music for free and the entertainment industry isn’t making a profit off of their product, how are the workers within that industry supposed to make a living?
2. How are the ideas expressed in the Sydel segment it different from the Chuck D and Lars Ulrich video?
The ideas expressed in Sydel’s segment were about making a profit and the money involved in copyright infringement, she focused on the economic side of this issue. Chuck D and Lars Ulrich were less concerned with the economic issue and more concerned with the power and control issue. Ulrich kept repeating how the control of the industry was at stake and Chuck D spoke about power going back into the hands of the people.
3. What point does Sydel make that is the same or different than the Chuck D and Lars Ulrich video?
A point made by all three people was that they all know that no one can stop the rapid changing pace of technology, but before it gets out of control, someone needs to figure out a way to control it. A solution needs to be found about how to control the illegal downloading and file sharing but still giving people what they want in convenient, cheap entertainment.
