Now that OS 2.0 for the iPhone/iPod Touch is available, I’ve gotten to see my books on the Touch. I love it.

In the peaceful town of Blacksburg, VA, where none would suspect, a great evil lurks. Deep in the tablet requirements, the mandatory proprietary software bundles, and RIAA litigation letters lies The Hideous Beast of … NonFreedom. It preys on the helpless innocents, incarcerating them into vendor lock-ins, and subpoenaing their network records. This past fall, one student organization has risen to face this monster. They call themselves Free Culture at Virginia Tech. Touting a name that makes
