At 6pm pst, 7pm rmt, 8pm cst, and 9pm east…. Kevin, Jeff, PJ,
Doc Searls (of the Linux Journal), and Emmett Plant have another
great show lined up tonight on The Linux Show!!

In Segment One- Hot News: We will be covering
the hot Linux news of the week. But this time NO comments about the
clueless PR hacks.

In Segments Two – Napster
We will discuss the ramifications of the entertainment industry
wining round one of the battle against
cross-loading technology and what it may mean to
the music downloading public (like nothing).

In Segments Three – MORE ON THE Microsoft & the
Business Software Alliance: The Attack on America
Continues

This is a continuation on last weeks conversation…..

The Business Software Alliance (www.BSA.org) announced on Feb
first, the official launch of its Software Truce
campaign(www.bsatruce.com), a one-month opportunity for local
Boston businesses to review their software programs and acquire the
licenses they need to get legal without facing penalties for past
infringement imposed by BSA. This is the third and largest Software
Truce offered by BSA to date with nearly one million businesses
reached simultaneously in Boston, Chicago , Cleveland , Dallas and
Denver.

At the GeekCast office we recieved 4 different notifications on
this truce program for the Chicago market. Are they getting ugly on
this one?
