gideon...
you are deliberately giving a false argument that you know is stupid...copyright is easy to define and easy not to break...you cant copyright the letter "A" LOL even though you will go and pretend like you can...you can not copy right a general idea like anal sex LOL...read carefully: NOTHING is legally stopping me from being creative and producing content without using other peoples WORK ...your argument that copyright stops people from being creative is completely wrong....I am not prepared to debate this with you unless you give me a real life example...video juke box is not one....
video juke box broke the law and they knew it...you are NOT NOT NOT allowed by law to break DRM quote from your article: the "digital locks" provision is an anti-circumvention rule that makes it against the law merely to break a "digital lock" (i.e., to route around any form of DRM, no matter how weak) even if (and this is the important part) you are breaking the digital lock for perfectly legal reasons. if video juke box thinks they are above the law then BOOOOO fucking HOOOOOOOOOO fuck them...
as for IBM its YOUR link that says they only made 700 million on OS...YOU said microsoft made 20billion I said 218 but was thinking we were talking about value of a company...20billion is your figure not mine...
as for kickstarter as a business model this says it all: (quote gideon)
"hell even a self rolled crowd funding script will work if you know how to setup a proper campaign."
just proves my point...1% of people can use this LOL...not only is it limited to the USA it is basically worthless if you are not a traffic guru and many many many many many people are not...of those few people who are traffic gurus not all can use kickstarter LOL they not only need traffic skills they need marketing and idea skills...sounds like everybody can use it! LOL the lottery is a more realistic business model
