Thread Name: The Purpose of Copyright
Subject: RE: 'The Purpose of Copyright'
There was an interesting article on the radio this morning about the case that's proceeding against ICraveTV. The writer said that America would not have the publishing industry it does now, nor would India have the television industry that it has without either of those countires ignoring the copyright legislation of other countries. The freedom from copyright spurred them onto freer and more open expressions.
