I like Cory as a counterweight to the overly optimistic technology writers who promise utopian futures, but fail to consider the downside of their ideas. If all you knew of his writing was this book, though, you'd think that it's all doom and gloom for the internet. However, the recent repeal of Net Neutrality may once again highlight Doctorow's prescience.

The audiobook, narrated by Wil Wheaton, is well produced, except for the off key (Amanda Palmer?) piano bumper played between every subsection of the book. It becomes grating quickly.
