Sure. I think, like Glen, that it would be useful to start not with assumptions that copyright cannot or doesn't work in an electronic age, but with some specific concerns showing why it doesn't work. "Concerns" to me would mean something more than just "I don't want to have to pay that much or in that way." That's true for a million things and always has been. What is NEW about copyright and electronic information?
