My response to the article in Süddeutsche digital "Verdi union on the locking-tip"
owns The position paper of Verdi indeed "explosive force". The motivation is laudable, but that's about it. Are critical concepts and approaches the union take the development of our digital society, no bill.
Verdi tried to preserve traditional business models. Pressure and punishment will do but can not. rather needed is the courage to develop new business models. Since Gutenberg's time the carrier of content is sold. That was the case of books, newspapers, records, CDs and DVDs for many years a very successful model. The players in the music industry, not coincidentally called "record companies". In the digital age, the content needs will no longer support. These business models have therefore no future.
The software and computer game industry has to face the challenge make since the mid-80s. The most creative companies have survived in the competition for new business models. We owe this competitive developments such as shareware, freeware and PayPerUse. The invention of new, intelligent business models is the object of the economy. The policy aims to encourage innovation and protect by copyright, subsidize the other hand, outdated business models by the state. This is discussed fully in other industries.
worth reading your article criticizes the Verdi paper rightly so. The union has warmed unsuitable solution attempts before yesterday. The social and political debate is already much further. Even the proposals the music industry are advanced.
contract calls for significant consequences "digital illegal parking" and shoots so clearly beyond the target. Peter Schaar is right, not the principle of proportionality must get out of sight.
