I think copyright was for the last 200-300 years a neccessary lesser evil - in this I agree with Eric Flint's "Salvos Against Big Brother" series of columns. They describe the idea much better than I ever could - you can read them here:

However, I'm not sure that in the age of Internet copyright is neccessary anymore, and whether it still encourages creativity more than it stifles it.
