Hah, I think that video actually made a pretty good case _for_ IP - the idea that everything would be funded like Starcitizen sounds like a nightmare. Squeezing

Hah, I think that video actually made a pretty good case _for_ IP - the idea that everything would be funded like Starcitizen sounds like a nightmare. Squeezing the most fervent customers dry while having no obligation to actually deliver. At least currently we get finished products that have to stand on their own merits, rather than just vague promises. Not to mention that for software there's a good chance that this would just supercharge DRM and SaaS.
