Everything is climbing on the back of something else in any case, just some are more blatant and more obvious. Nature & Nurture, as they say. Things are never as unique as many seem to think. Quote:

As I have said previously, I am not sure that historical elements are all that relevant, in our so called enlightened age. Digital, has certainly disrupted things from a copyright point of view, because of ease or fear of duplication ... not to mention a huge increase in quality, basically a clone. A physical item has a cost to produce, that needs to be recouped at the very least. A digital copy of a copy costs virtually nothing to produce. Because of that, copyright has entered a new age, where it is based on something other than just physical. In principle, many elements are still the same, but not all. |

Humans so love to be in charge and have control, often at the expense of others. The few in charge of the many. I personally believe most of us are transitioning into a new form of slavery. |

Yeah, I figure I should still be getting paid annual royalties for every year someone whose life I saved lives on. And onward through the generations, for every child they produced after I treated them. That sounds only fair.
