I agree completely, but, and I'm getting a bit philosophical now, I think ownership is an outmoded concept based on animal territorialism, and is something that our species needs to take a long hard look at if we are to move past this stage of petty squabbles and killing each other in massive numbers. No one said it would be easy...
And ideas... Well, I understand IP, but can anyone ever really own an idea? Ideas like to get around a bit you know! Not sure it does us any good to be overly possessive!
The 'everything is a remix' is Interesting stuff, I may let the old sub-c cogitate on that for a while, cheers. :-)
