How did digital media happen ? Through a unique approach to digital documents, and detailed intricate histories of illicit internet piracy networks, The Digital Culture Industry goes beyond the Napster creation myth and illuminates the unseen individuals, code and events behind the turn to digital media.

James Allen-Robertson is a doctoral alumni of the Department of Sociology at the University of York, UK. His previous research has been published in the international journal Mobilities and he continues his work in the fields of digital culture and social informatics.
