When It's Music It's Ok, But...
19 May 2003
After cheering for Robyn this morning, I noticed this question, ”Does it encourage stealing or is it just poorly judged use of sarcasm?”
Trust me, were it somebody’s musical work, we’d have people throwing around RIAA and DRM and every other acronym to debate this concept of stealing. Copying somebody’s templates is theft absent any permission to do so.
Melissa makes it pretty clear that when the section of the article is titled this way, it’s theft – not poorly judged use of sarcasm! It’s also not right to say, ”Chill out, it’s just research,” in some weak attempt at humor about encouraging the theft!
The real essence of this entire debate is, how will creative people get paid?
