It's up to creators as well, in fact I'd say it's imperative that creators fight back against DRM and copyright at this moment in time. I know my own journey through this has brought me to a position where I'm now questioning any copyright at all, even the adjustments made by creative commons. Seems to me that copyright now is just a codified way of remaining afraid of the inevitable push toward all out freedom without restriction. I know that the way my mind is working at the moment, I can't imagine not putting work out into the public domain (although I am investigated the AGPL as an option).
