Summary: This talk was uploaded 12 hours ago. "Aaron is co-founder of Snowdrift.coop and a long-time free software and free culture activist," the description says. "In his day job as an independent music teacher, he pushes his students to use free/libre tools and release their music under free licenses. This talk is a discussion of the economic distinctions between private goods, club goods, commons, and public goods; and why software freedom struggles to get economically supported."
