They're only auctioning exclusivity for 12 months. Man! I have a great idea for auctioning off rights in a ebay fashion but to open content licenses only. I think a system like ebay that could auction both the original and reproduction rights would be mega successful and revalidate originality in the modern world. THink about it, as the price of a reproduction goes up (aka, Scream or Mona Lisa), the value of the original auction would only increase...anyway...its kinda evil, but interesting to think about...
