First, they are both non-material, unlimited, common goods. Second: - Why not the freedom to "run" an artwork, for any purpose? - Why not the freedom to "study" an artwork, and adapt it to your needs? - Why not the freedom to redistribute copies (digital copys are originals, copying do not take away the source) of an artwork so you can help your neighbor? - Why not the freedom to modify a (copied) artwork, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits? > I like freedom in general, and in this case, I see supporting free > software and free cultural works as the best option for society. I agree. regards al3xu5 / dotcommon -- Support free software!
