lol!!

I think everything is art, the double exclamation points above, a form of art.

There's independent and mainstream art, all art starts out as independent, from within the creator, over time art will tend towards the mainstream as it builds an audience.

Is the art discussion relating to how the artists are going to be paid in the coming copyright free world? I believe a strong AI will take care of that problem, but in lieu of that a more encompassing facebook-like like button might be enough.

I mean really, how many of us have bought a book, read a chapter or two and then said "nuts to this!"

Wouldn't it make more sense to have all books available, let everyone read everything they want and then allow us to say "I liked this book, go ahead and send a bit of my monthly content allowance to the author."

On the surface it sounds like a simple subscription plan and it might be just that, it would have to be implemented on a shoestring budget though I am sure, at least in the beginning. But what is up with all this greed anyway?
