Re: how far have we really taken these rules on the forum!
So, I've been monitoring this entire topic, and am not going to get too heavily involved in this since I have better things to do than to waste my time arguing copyright law back in fourth. Post 136 definitely covered most of my issues with 135; however, one issue stuck out to me in particular -- the concept/impression that I received from 135 that implied that code theft is bad because the authors put in dedicated work to make something a reality and therefore its bad; whether money is involved or not is irrelevant. The problem, of course, is that sound designers put in a lot of effort into making good, high-quality sounds, and tend to spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on sound design libraries, VSTs, etc. Therefore, both are equally bad and should be treated the exact same way, irrespective of what product it happens in, or what product it happens to. And though 135 partially covered that, I just thought I might point that out. I'm going to hang back and monitor this topic now; Jayde has pretty much said things far better than I could have.
