• Misinterpreted, not misquoted
  If I understood Trent's blog correctly, I think that his complaint
  was not that CNET misquoted him, but that what he said was
  misinterpreted as actual support for the ISP tax idea. My
  understanding is that the original title of the article, according
  to The NIN Hotline, was "Trent Reznor favors an ISP 'tax on
  music'" which was later changed because it was misleading.
  Other people apparently made the same misinterpretation, due
  in part to that original title which appeared on Google (as a
  cached file) for a while after it had been changed. Perhaps he
  needed to choose his words better, but I believe his blog was an
  attempt to clear the air about his opinions, not to attack CNET
  for any misquotations. In reply to: "Audio: What Trent Reznor said to News.com"
