- afarrell 11y agoIf you are going to say that my comment adds nothing to the conversation, I would appreciate it if you would make an argument for why we should allow software engineers (and designers, DevOps, Admins, marketers, CEOs, etc...) to make money off copyrighting their work and claiming things as intelectual "property", but not allow musicians (and recording engineers, marketers, distributors...) to do the same? Why are software engineers able to make money without constantly flying from conference to conference away from their families?
