   Media monitoring would be links to articles, and an encouragement for 
people to write letters to the editor.  The actual articles for most 
media are not licensed such that they can be posted to mailing lists. 
Unlike other lists, this list specifically disallows copyright 
infringement for what should be obvious reasons.

   I should point out that this is the Digital Copyright forum, not the 
Digital Music Copyright forum.  While many of the articles will focus on 
music as this is the copyright sector that is most vocal, we are not in 
any way limited to music issues.  While we have never done a poll, I 
suspect software creators are still the largest single group represented 
here.
