The more things change

damninteresting.com has an interesting article about the tragic creation of FM radio. It explains how a brilliant inventor was cheated out of profit and patents by the US government and vested wealthy interests in AM radio. The same sort of corruption is currently happening with various RIAA's/CRIA's, MPAA's and the like trying to get copyright laws passed to maintain their portfolios for infinity. Those who don't remember history, doomed to repeat it? Yes.
