You replied to an empty discussion?
We have an ongoing series of discussions about copyright -- whether it's a good or a bad thing....at all...not just in it's current implementation.
So, rather than wondering about copyrights effects on 17th century Britain and Germany -- why not use NOW. How hard is it to imagine the world with no concept of intellectual property?
It would surely be all roses and candy canes right? Knowledge would no longer be withheld from the poor. Greedy corporations would go bust practically over night. All of us could get copies of ebooks from "the price fix six" without giving those greedy bastards a dime.
It's all benefit with no drawback -- right?
