Or they won’t learn because the number of people who create the type of media that a corporation would want to steal is ultimately very few and those people can merely be talked over. There is absolutely no reason to believe that information is both available and timely.
The current system we have is harmful to small creators. I release a lot of music under a pay-whatever model (almost all of it actually), but I would hate to be forced to do that. Five or ten years is reasonable, and there should be no such thing as “criminal” copyright infringement – it should be a tort only. I think that’s a fairly reasonable, even libertarian, compromise that doesn’t head too far into idealism. I really need to be paid for my work, y’see. Or paid for no reason, that’s fine too.
YAY congratulations!
