So a musician who writes great original music that a large number of people want copies of so they can listen to it whenever they want should spend much of their time playing gigs and weddings instead of spending it writing more new music?
- kiba 2y agoI didn't say anything about a musician should be doing X or Y. I only question that copyright is necessary to make a living. A musician can teach people how to play music, for example.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoThat's what they already do, if you add concerts to the mix. Their publisher already takes approximately all the money from selling copies anyway. And that's who the copyright is really protecting. Also: a musician who writes great original music should keep writing great original music, instead of forever charging rent on the music they already wrote.
