Not seeing how "it would be nice to live in a world without the current incarnation of intellectual property law" is incompatible with "but we don't, so we're going to hold you to the standards you've created". They seem imminently consistent to me.
- jlgreco 14y ago> the standards you've created And that is particularly applicable since the company in question is Disney.
- leephillips 14y agoI wish I could share your optimism, but, alas, I fear that it will take a bit more time before consistency is achieved.
- yew 14y agoI wouldn't call it optimism. Both of the 'infringers' you linked to paid plenty of money for it. I can't say that article of yours makes your point nearly as well as you might like, either. I hope it doesn't represent your general attitude towards derivative works (or just derivative works you don't appreciate aesthetically, whichever).
