interesting media reads

Here are a few articles I've come across (via the Drudge Report and Bryan Hayes, respectively) on the topic of the internet and how it is (or can) affect other forms of mainstream media.

Obscene Losses - How free pornography available on the Internet is wreaking havoc within the adult-entertainment industry.

Radio Free Everywhere - An article regarding the ubiquity of Internet radio, and how it's variety and availability should make it universally popular (at least, I think it should). I listen to it everyday at work -- mainly two college stations (KSDB, Kansas State University's college station, and WMBR, MIT's sutdent station) that I wouldn't normally have the capability of listening to, at least via normal analog radio waves. Internet radio is good stuff.


Enjoy the reading and I hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving.
