Focusing on the activism within the music community, the book explores how musicians and fans have rallied against the monopolistic practices of major labels following the Napster court case. Patrick Burkart examines the rise of various advocacy groups, including culture jammers and hackers, who resist the encroachment of copyright laws on music sharing. By analyzing the impact of peer-to-peer networking and the evolving Celestial Jukebox model, the work situates these movements within broader technological and social theories, providing fresh insights into contemporary challenges.
