If you’re a fan of watching free videos on the Web, this has been a good week for you. In addition to the release of all South Park episodes, there has been a new focus on TV portals as well as a theory that “good” pirates can actually help a work succeed in the marketplace.

In other news, a prominent economist claims that copyright is “dead”, the United States gets called on copyright hypocrisy and the record labels make news both in and out of the courtroom.

Also, as always, there is a few of our usual weird stories as, this week, the World of Warcraft winds up in the midst of a copyright dispute. No word yet if they are calling in the Horde to assist with the assault.

Remember, as usual, this week’s linkroll is a “raw” link list. Some stories are duplicated, some do not point to their original sources and some may not be accurate. A great deal of refining goes into producing the show notes for the Copyright 2.0 Show.

Note: I am moving both the linkrolls and the show notes over to Diigo to make the process easier and more consistent. If you have any issues or comments, please let me know!
