Re: word is in RIAA is trying to brainwash people if its art you should not charge for it as since the dawn of mankind HUMANS have shared art and science and knowledge
are you saying that you wish to control knowledge and science and art and culture, buy way of making me pay fo rthe extension of human evolution and culture?
If so you sir are a sad case for a human being and i highly suggest you go BUY a copy of carl sagans "COSMOS"
and watch the last two episodes very very closely. I want you to look up "maps of 1513" on Google and find out about a map made from "other ancient sources" that showed the antarctic free of ice to a precision that was not available technologically until 1958. Look up longitudes.
I want you to know of the library of Alexandria where the opposite of copyright was used to make many wonderful advancements, that because of religion and doctrine such as yours were burnt and NOT rediscovered for almost 1100 more years.
Tnaks to control of knowledge aka copyright were are fast entering another dark age of mankind and if you and your kind do not see that sharing is and of it self the best reward, then you are no worse then the Spanish whom destroyed the Aztec culture or the people that burnt the Alexandrian library. Like linux at first the new movies and music might not be full of grand quality but almost all of the special effects Hollywood can do I SIR CAN DO....given more time. IF your rational were true then Linux would not exist.
Perhaps it is time for the equivalent of open source movies and music to begin in a true form.
What does 50 year copyright do for the citizens of today but make for laziness. What do I or any artist truly need a distribution house for music and art. When we have the internet at our finger tips , charge what you can get , for ye shall get no more.
--------------- btw if you start out with the thought that money = prime motive for your art it cannot be called art, it is thusly called a product and if you can't sell it then it is worth nothing. ---------------- here is an example of the future of advertising as an example of open sourcing your ads to get more people to advertise similarly for example.
