  As much as I like the "code is a form of expression so code is art" movement, I don't think that's legally the case.

    Isn't "code is art" table stakes for having copyright apply?

      I can't speak for any other countries, but here in the Netherlands software doesn't follow the "normal" copyright rules. For example, ripping CDs is perfectly fine but copying software requires permission from the developer. Programmers also can't apply for compensation from the private copy levy (the thing that makes us pay €6 on top of every phone so we can legally use it to play music). This utterly ridiculous special case (as well as the plain corrupt private copy levy) doesn't necessarily exist anywhere else, but it does show that you can't just assume uniformity of copyright law.
