I completely agree on this point with you and as said before I encourage and appreciate initiatives like this.
I just wanted to explain my feelings about copyrights, it is something I am sensitive to because it has been recently more and more difficult for photographers (but I would say visual artists in general) to survive, because the copyrights are less and less considered. When clients are hiring me, they have the sensation that they have any rights on the images I produce during the shooting. Many clients forgot the fact that there is a major difference between the prestation (the actual shooting session), and the rights to use. It is obvious that the price of an image won't be the same if the client is using it in front of his store to promote his business, than if he plan a worldwide ad campaign with giant billboards in different major countries. That is very interesting subject to discuss though. Thanks to have shared your vision.
