RantWoman is aware that in legal context use of terminology can have quite specific statutory, legislative, juridical, and economic baggage. For instance RantWoman notes the $3 billion dollar wrangle about whether for insurance purposes the collapse of the two towers of the World Trade Center after 9/11 was one event or two. RantWoman at the moment has no way to estimate the value of discussion about the following terms. However, she finds the following distinctions highly topical and helpful when considering the matter of rights and the Kindle.
Lexicography item from a recent email
Video display: the usual manner of electronically presenting content such as books and magazines on a computer screen.
Audio display: the original display of content is accomplished by electronic means. This carries with it the assumption that the electronic production and the rights to do so should be managed exactly the same way that video display is managed
Audio performance: original production of audio content is done by a human and then rights to distribute / replay are handled as currently.
One supposes that video performance would then be some kind of performance involving live humans managed and distributed as video files.
RantWoman imagines there are lots of people with way more scarier credentials than RantWoman breaking their heads over these problems, and RantWoman is offering her views anyway!
