„They are grannies, and they are
hackers“,
called the boss of a
manufacturer of embroidery pattern and demanded punishment. The
housewives had illegaly multiplied
embroidery patterns in large
number over their
Chat-channels.In the Internet no longer only the Youngster is homelike. Each meeting place
for pensioners in Germany offers computer
courses, held from unemployed professionals, who know how it works.
A clear trend for the future: The old persons push also the doors to
the music channels in the Web far up. They will mix the Charts, will
instal their Netlabel, produce
the best online Podcasts. They become more
and more important for music producers. And we should stop finally calling

chosenit for his life. Turning to
classical music at higher age, that is possible. But you can finally also
download, e.g. the whole 4. Symphonie by Brahms in e-minor for 99 US cent with eclassical.com. A demographic time bomb threatens, if
the young users of filesharing carry their “Internet
behaviour" forward to the higher age, says to a study of
Jupiter Research in 2005. The statement proceeds from wrong conditions: Already
2005 in the USA was stated, that not! young people are predominant,
who use filesharing. Likewise 30i-, 40- and
50 years old do it. According to AOGF 2005 22.7%, a scarce
quarter, of the surfers in the Internet in Germany were over 50. And

ill old humans applies:
