And what exactly do you propose we replace the current copyright with? I am all for scaling back copyright to reasonable levels. That being said, ignoring copyrights and depriving living authors of their livelihood deprives the authors of their very incentive for writing in the first place.
I, personally have some very specific ideas on how to overhaul copyright laws, but at the same time, ignoring the current copyright laws is not the answer either.
