The sequel to “Don’t Copy That Floppy” is now being edited and will soon be released by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA). It’s called “Don’t Copy That Too,” and it will be bigger and better than the original! The song by M.E. Hart and DC rapper BSheba is brilliant, and the message, about respecting one another’s creative works, is timely and important. We also feature art students from Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington DC, and game designers from id Software in Mesquite Texas. Watch this space for news about the release date!

Back in 1992 I was hired by the Software Publishers Association (SPA) to produce an educational video that would teach kids about making illegal copies of games and software. We made it a rap video, and the result was “Don’t Copy That Floppy,” starring DC actor/attorney ME Hart. Since then the video has become wildly popular on YouTube and other sites across the Web.

Now we are working on a sequel, and it will be hot! Here’s a sneak-peak “trailer” we showed tonight at the SIIA (formerly SPA) COdie Awards banquet in San Francisco.
