Tim Wu - The Attention Merchants

Leo Laporte's weekly Triangulation has some guests with messages that interest me. His last program featured Tim Wu. Wu is an academic from Columbia Univ. I liked his book "Switched" which describes (if I can remember correctly) the movement from the original open Internet to an Internet dominated by major players. The focus of the interview with Mr. Laporte concerns advertising and "free content".
