Maybe so. It can't be denied, though, that there are business models that would collapse without copyright laws. So be it. If your business model doesn't work, do something else. The society is not responsible for upholding a particular business model. The only relevant question is, is society gaining or losing by sustaining copyright protections? This is not a question of any fundamental individual rights. Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
