digital artifacts do not play well with capitalism as it is. something has to be done. I refuse to watch what could have been vanish...(e.g. napster, megaupload, what.cd and those kinds of complete medial-cultural archives). Heck, we're going the opposite direction, libraries are starting to get mud slung. There are too many incentives to shift that public perception, into libraries being bad; just a couple more generations. sure, people whose job is to make this expensive productions involving lots of people need to earn a living somehow... it's an open problem but we need to look beyond capitalism to find an answer acceptable to all people, both those who come up with the ideas (who when coming up with them are greatly benefited by open access to all culture) and those living off the rent of the produced cultural artifact.
