Here's my opinion. If anyone think of it as deviant, don't read on.<br>
Personally I don't think copyright should be necessary since it's
all about money and profits and competition. I believe we'll be
approaching a new era where transhumans will soon defy these
corporations and somehow make it so that people can copy what they
want so long as they give credit. The problem is how complicated
humans are nowadays to claim that they did something. Sure, the laws
of nature state that we all want to own things, to be free and to
live. But we wouldn't have to steel. If we could copy things people
would be satisfied.<br>
There's a difference between infringement and giving credit. I
posted a few renditions of John William's The Mission score via MIDI
and I explained that this is just my version of it, which is more
for organs, but I gave full credit to the original composer.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Hi, this is Snoopi. I'm in the
hospital so Blake is typing for
me. I wanted to reply to the question about copyright. I
used to worry about copyright
myself being that I do so many songs using Dectalk. However,
let me tell you why
I'm not worried about it anymore. I have two reasons.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>1. A 10 year old did one of
LadyGaga's songs and she put it on
YouTube without permission. Lady Gaga found it and ended up
having the girl perform
in one of her concerts.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>2. Everyone is posting songs on
YouTube that they don't have
permission to do. And now YouTube even has complete concerts
and movies.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>So I'm sorry but in my mind copyright
went out the window. So
I wouldn't even think twice about it anymore.</span></p>
