In today's daily news podcast, the horse race between Dell and Hewlett-Packard for the lead PC shipment position continues, with HP closing in on Dell; a U.S. judge denies the federal government's request to dismiss a lawsuit alleging that AT&T broke the law by assisting the NSA to eavesdrop on millions of Americans' telephone conversations; YouTube is being sued for copyright infringement; and (surprise, surprise!) the majority of bloggers prefer to write about themselves rather than to discuss politics or technology. Meanwhile, the Editor's Note examines one person's opinion of digital rights management.

Your host today is Barbara Krasnoff.
