Copyright law has not, IMO, been as fair as you seem to make it sound, especially when it comes to the music industry: > have been wisely checked (the Doctrine of First Sale is a shining example) Like the way that I can sell my DRM music to a second party? > it's been limited in that it still (grudgingly) respects the operative delineation between public, commercial enterprise, and private sharing and enjoyment. Tell that to the RIAA who sue individuals all the time. > Of all the options I can think of, drawing the line with corporate status is the most elegant. That is to say, you can only be sued for infringement if you are a corporation. So, individuals who pirate software, music, and movies should not be able to be sued at all? What if they distribute said pirated works? Im sorry if I sound a bit snarky, I just feel that this is a complicated issue which you are way oversimplifying.
