Sony VP On Stopping Napster

[1]akira-x writes "I spotted a link to an interesting (and
disturbing) article on [2]Gnutella News regarding some
comments that were made by Steve Heckler, senior vice
president of Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc. According to
him, Napster WILL lose, because "The [music] industry will
take whatever steps it needs to protect itself and protect
its revenue streams. It will not lose that revenue stream, no
matter what." The [3]disturbing part is what Heckler says
Sony will attempt to do to help them win: "Sony is going to
take aggressive steps to stop this," Heckler told the Summer
Forty-Niner. "We will develop technology that transcends the
individual user. We will firewall Napster at source -- we
will block it at your cable company, we will block it at your
phone company, we will block it at your [Internet-service
provider]. We will firewall it at your PC." "
