He just showed up in Calif out of the blue. We had sushi and talked about old times and current events. Adam, who is now a Boston-based angel investor, talks about how the software industry is wrecked. I agree of course, and I hope we can get back on track. Then I asked Adam a rhetorical question. What if, in 1979, the RIAA had sued Personal Software and shut them down. Could the PC revolution have happened without its breakthrough &lt;a href=&quot;http://radio.weblogs.com/0001015/images/2002/04/20/visicalc.gif&quot;&gt;product&lt;/a&gt;?

			<outline text="The Wired article, linked above, may be the worst news yet for the RIAA. Their theory so far has been that they can shut down music sharing by shutting down companies like Napster, MP3.Com, Morpheus and Kazaa; and whatever pops up next. Their technologists seem to be telling them that there is no such thing as decentralized file sharing. But what if there is?" created="Sat, 20 Apr 2002 14:24:48 GMT"/>
			<outline text="And the music industry strategy may have a twist. Consider this possibility, and it's just a possibility. As they say on TV, this story is based on real events, but the story itself is fiction, real people are not portrayed." created="Sat, 20 Apr 2002 14:28:51 GMT"/>
			<outline text="Let's say a popular music sharing network starts up. Call it Music For The People Networks (MFTPN). It's popular, millions of people download and use the software. MFTPN is low on money (of course) so a group of Hollywood producers, (apparent) renegades, start a new venture to capitalize on the flow of creative material over the Internet. They approach MFTPN, and say &quot;Include our software in the package and we'll give you $3 million, no questions asked.&quot; MFTPN reviews the software and sees that it is what it appears to be, and says yes. But there's a back door, because the software can update itself over the Internet." created="Sat, 20 Apr 2002 14:29:52 GMT"/>
			<outline text="Now behind the scenes, the renegade Hollywood group is actually funded by Disney, AOL and other members of the RIAA. Why would they give so much money to fund a company who develops software that they so despise?" created="Sat, 20 Apr 2002 14:34:32 GMT"/>
