Now before anybody says what do you have against people making money from their works? Let me say i got nothing against it, i fully support that people should have the option of making money from their work.
HOWEVER as the article and anyone with eyes in their head clearly points out (more then once) its seldom the artist themselves who complain, but rather the huge companies who profit from their work.
Oh no those poor monks won,´t earn anything anything if the printer is legalized as already shown the church at that time didn,´t care one bit about the so called poor monks what they cared about was that their control over the information and thus the population would disappear.
Fast forward (past all the other times where the companies cried wolf) to the decision to make libraries public again they cried, that should such a thing happen no book would ever be published again since no writer would ever be able to earn money from his or her work (though if you take the disaster that was twilight maybe that would have been a good thing...god i hate twilight) What happened oh yeah more books are published then ever before.
And now to the music and all the other companies outcry over piracy and how they lose money except...They are earning more money now then ever before and music and art seems to be flourishing more then ever before.
Those poor artists that are losing their money seems to be doing better then ever before same with the musicians and so forth.
Its very clear that the more things change the more they stay the same, the more the companies are losing control over the population the more they complain and try to get it back.
