Since I love art, I want dedicated professionals devoting their lives to making it. They produce so much better art than even equally talented people doing it

Since I love art, I want dedicated professionals devoting their lives to making it.
They produce so much better art than even equally talented people doing it in their spare time.
- amelius 4y agoOk, so you find an artist that you like and (perhaps together with some other fans) pay them a salary. No need for artificial constructs like copyright law.
- shagie 4y agoBecause the same laws that protect the artist with copyright also protects the code that I write as a hobby or release under an open source library to ensure that improvements to my code come back to the library. Without copyright, GPL and its deracinates have no leg to stand on to prevent it from being incorporated into closed source programs and forever locked away. Sure, you'll be able to copy the application without copyright protecting it, but you'd be unable to modify it. It would be the success of the free part at the cost of the libre values.
