Lawrence Lessig, best known for his work promoting his Creative Commons foundation, announced today that he will join the Board of Directors of the Recording Industry Association of America. "We're pleased to welcome Professor Lessig into our cabal, er, uh, association" said RIAA head Cary Sherman. Lessig also announced that the Creative Commons 4.0 family of licenses will include a new license type. Dubbed "Attribution Non-Commercial Share-and-get-Sued You-Little-Punks", the new license will allow full adoption of the Creative Commons by RIAA labels.
