Video-sharing sites, peer-to-peer file networks spotlighted

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Japanese government issued a formal statement of requests to the government of the United States on regulatory reform and market competition policy on October 18, and included a request for the United States to help stop the unauthorized reproduction and distribution of Japanese animation online. Specifically, the formal statement mentions the spread of Japanese animation and other materials on video-sharing sites and peer-to-peer file-sharing networks.

According to Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the distribution of copyrighted materials in the United States has increasingly damaged the creative industries of Japan. Despite frequent requests to remove unauthorized material from sites with user-submitted videos, the ministry says the fundamental problem remains unresolved for the foreseeable future. The ministry also says that the high legal costs and complex procedures of copyright infringement cases against peer-to-peer file-sharing are issues.

Japanese copyright holders have been sending increasing numbers of requests to remove unauthorized material from video-sharing sites such as Google's YouTube, and anime is its own category in several sites — inside and outside the United States — that link to file-sharing networks such as BitTorrent. The issues in the statement of requests were discussed in the fourth Japan-U.S. Trade Forum meeting which was held on October 18 in Tokyo.

Pie instalēšanas Win2K visas CD un DVD iekārtas uzsēdina uz PIO by default. Vismaz tagad ir skaidrs kāpēc.
Win9x vispār visām iekārtām, ieskaitot HDD, DMA bija jāieslēdz piespiedu kārtā.
PIO modē draivs nepietiekami efektīvi pārdzen datus un tāpēc bilde var raustīties. PowerDVD 5 pat instalācijas laikā pieteica DMA modi ieslēgt.
Viena no pirmajām darbībām pēc Win2K uzinstalēšanas ir pārmest draivu uz DMA modi. Varbūt man nav bijuši gļukaini draivi, bet neesmu pieredzējis, ka draivs tiktu atmests atpakaļ uz PIO. Interesanti...
XP parasti sāk ar DMA modi, arī neesmu piedzīvojis, ka draivs tiktu "nomests" uz PIO. Tas pats attiecas uz Win2003.
Cik man ar Vistu sanācis saskarties, arī tur ir līdzīgi.
Hmmm... it kā skaidrs kāpēc, bet dabā šis joks ar nomešanu uz PIO nav pieredzēts. Nu jā, uz to laiku Creative/Samsung 60x CD-ROMi tika izņemti no apgrozījuma. Vieni no lielākājiem problēmu radītājiem.
