Free Culture

Today I've started reading Lawrence Lessig's book "Free Culture" about how big media uses technology and the law to lock down culture and control creativity.

Up to now it seems like quite an interesting read.
I'm rather interested in the topic the book discusses.

Lawrence made this book available for free download here.

I really like the initiatives writers like Lawrence and Cory Doctorow are taking by making their books free to download under a Creative Commons License.
I hope more people follow, not because I like to have stuff for free, but because this way I can learn about these books and get a chance to read them.
