Urs Gasser on iTunes

Yesterday the Swiss national radio network interviewed Berkman's Urs Gasser about the long-term viability of the iTunes business model.  More than 100,000 iPod owners in Switzerland eagerly awaited the launch of iTunes Switzerland yesterday. Gasser expressed doubts that business models, like iTMS, are the final answer to today's digital media crisis. To hear more from Urs on this issue, regularly check out his blog.  Urs' focus is on digital media proper, and recently co-authored, "Content and Control: Assessing the Impact of Policy Choices on Potential Online Business Models in the Music and Film Industries."  If you speak German, Gasser's interview is housed on the network's site.
