Techdirt: Copyright Is About Incentives, Not Protection

Techdirt: Copyright Is About Incentives, Not Protection

I'm growing tired of big money's campaigns to over-extend copyright - and decry "piracy!" - when the public has simply shifted from sharing what they listen to through a digital medium rather than on the analogue cassette tapes of previous decades. We've always shared music - encouraging discovery and promoting future purchases, with recordings from the FM radio put into mix tapes for friends, etc.
