We first reported back in early August that there were negotiations between the MPAA and BitTorrent inventor Bram Cohen:

“Motion Picture Association of America, Inc. (MPAA) Chairman and CEO Dan Glickman and BitTorrent Founder and CEO Bram Cohen will hold a press conference on Tuesday, November 22th, 2005 at the American Film Institute.”

Didn’t we tell you there would be a lot of announcements? This is getting seriously weird.

Update: While this “press conference” is getting serious attention over at sites like Digg, we have been unable to track down the alleged press release on the MPAA site (in fact, the only BitTorrent press releases seem to be negative ones). Someone has to be at AFI today, fill us in.
