: eLegal CantonAmazon Kindle text to speech a copyright violation?
By David Canton
The Authors Guild is upset with the new Kindle, claiming that its text to speech feature violates copyright. Several comments have been made about the dubiousness of the claim.
See the New York Times op-ed by the president of the Authors Guild called The Kindle Swindle.
See reaction to it by Boing Boing, Techdirt, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
