Ahh, well when they sell their work they do. When I sell a book or cd they've already been paid. I don't pay Thomas Crapper every time I flush a toilet, and I don't pay Eli Whitney if i sell a cotton tee-shirt at a garage sale. I may not have the right to produce copies for sale because of copyright and patent law but the actual whatever I do pay for becomes mine that's factored into the price I pay for it.
