Audio from Revver founder's talk on copy-friendly business models
The audio from Tuesday night's talk by Revver co-founder Steven Starr is online. Steve spoke as part of my USC speaker-series on copyright, freedom and technology and his talk was about Revver, a system that puts ads at the end of viral videos, which means that every time the videos are copied, their creators make more money. Steve's talk was great, and there was a rollicking, wide-ranging Q&A session afterwards.Next Tuesday's speaker was to have been Jamie Love from the Consumer Project on Technology, but he's had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict with a diplomatic event. I will give his talk in his stead, about international development, copyright, and the Access to Knowledge movement. Link, Podcast feed
