  (8) The Digital Democracy of Sound

  Digital technology has changed how we find, how we make and how we listen to music. Sometimes it's easier to get hold of your favourite track than it is to get a good cup of coffee. Sounds are sampled, mixed, and shared on a scale that eclipses our wildest dreams from even a decade ago. This has created wonderful and terrible consequences, opening the door to pirates but also to a new world of music, the fourth world, where anything is possible. Featuring the voices of Steve Reich, DJ Spooky, Lawrence Lessig, Akufen and John Oswald. Includes the Episode 8 remix by Akufen (CBC)
