The latest Tech Weekly podcast is now live.

After last week's strategy document from the UK government - essentially telling the music (and film) industries to figure out with the ISPs how to prevent piracy or they'll legislate - we talk to Matt Phillips of the BPI and Nick Lansman, head of the ISP Association. Do they like the idea? How would it work? And could foreign film studios get your (British) connection yanked?

If you have an internet connection, this probably matters. (And if you don't have an internet connection, we'd love to hear about how you came across this ... )

Plus, Vic Keegan on next-generation broadband - do you know which person - for there's only one in the UK - has fibre to his/her home? And when the rest of us will?

New web business AdJug enters the lift to make an Elevator Pitch to Jemima.

Plus the news roundup, YouTube vs Pakistan explained, and our favourite comments picked from all the blogs. Was yours chosen? You'll have to listen to find out ...

As ever, we'd love to hear your thoughts, and what you'd like to hear in future editions. Over to you.
