One thing that saddens me is all the court cases concerning copyright infringement. Publicized and unpublicized. I copy, post and share daily, nothing wrong with it.
Let's hope by the time Ipv6 rolls around the notion of copyright is finally abandoned and we are in the middle of the new era, where the best art is supported by the public completely, via donations, perhaps made possible by Ipv6 tech.
