BOL 1089: Net neutrality double rant
Created: 10/19/2009
Video description: Molly and I go off on the Net neutrality debate, not so much about what the meaning of it is, but why you shouldn't use lies to defend your position. We also discuss the attractiveness of the Nook from Barnes and Noble and Molly and Rafe have a BlackBerry fight. About the phones. Not the fruit.
