We’re celebrating our tenth episode in the Tech Stream this week with a special discussion on travel related technology and web services.  Joining us for the journey is Peter Marks, technology editor for ABC Radio National Breakfast, Angus Kidman, Australian editor of Lifehacker and Venessa Paech, community manager at Lonely Planet online.

And we also take a look at the verdict handed down in the court case against Pirate Bay, the popular Swedish file-sharing website. We have some background on the case and on bit-torrents in general, plus responses to the result and thoughts on its wider implications from Electronic Frontiers Australia and the Motion Picture Distributors Association of Australia.  The audio used in this segment comes courtesy of Hack, Triple J’s daily current affairs program.
