Did anyone else catch the film on Copyright, Ripping and Creative
Commons on SBS on Tuesday night???

I was impressed with the content - a very accessible account of what's
wrong with US copyright and Disney's role (and IP rights, patents,
RIIA/MPIA, law suits, ...)

And that SBS put it on.
Not exactly *the* mass market, but still significant exposure.

The film "RIP: A remix Manifesto" and some other projects are on-line at:
<http://opensourcecinema.org/>

A question:
 Is there a local (CBR, Oz) group involved with/focussed on
  "Creative Commons"?
