"At the request of The New York Times, seven people on the battlefield's
front lines agreed to meet for a roundtable discussion of the issues. The
participants were Hilary Rosen, president of the Recording Industry
Association of America, a trade group representing the major record
labels; David Boies, a New York attorney defending Napster against an RIAA
lawsuit; Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee,
which recently held hearings on downloadable music; the filmmaker Kevin
Smith ("Chasing Amy," "Dogma"); Gene Kan, a Gnutella software developer;
Esther Dyson, the author and venture capitalist; and Craig Newell, a
17-year-old consumer from Lynnfield, Mass. Befitting the topic, the
discussion was conducted entirely in cyberspace, through exchanges of
e-mail messages."
