Dead author's estate snatches child's domain

Copyright

I thought this aggressive stuff was down to companies losing copyright if they did not defend it. Isn't that why Doglas Adams shut down Hitch Hikers sites, not 'cos he did not like them, but 'cos he would have lost copyrights.

HD DVD fights back in the US

PS3, etc.

Well, my dad got his PS3 'cos it was the cheapest Blu Ray player a year ago. Saying that though he's only got 2 films, one came free with it and the other I got him for xmas.

On the other hand, I got my PS3 just after xmas and have several Blu Ray films, more than games anyway.
