Using the applications of the internet and social networking sites it is easy to market a message, idea or product to millions of people around the world at very low cost. Generating hype for a movie, series, product is now very accessible and cheap with more and more of the world joining the online community. So those content creators who supposedly take a dent in earnings will need to find new business models that are applicable the the new set of rules that apply in the information age.

Look at micheal moore, He releases movies for free on the internet that cost him millions of dollars to produce, because he realises that the publicity and widespread knowledge of his efforts will repay him, either by giving him a voice to make change or by being hired for talks and shows around the world which will make him more money.

Micheal moore is a real trailblazer

Cheers
Chris

If that’s the case then trademarks, and patents should last for life as well. Why is it that artists should receive royalties for their lifetime but someone who spends their life perfecting their trade gets nothing but a pat on the back and a “well done buddy”?? We all work to make a living, and the thought that someone can work for a few years of their life and receive compensation in the millions for the rest of their life is incomprehensible to me.

you blew me away with that one. i was until now on the benches over copyright law but you sold me the whole winning game

under no circumstances go against Gary Fung. he is in the bleeding edge position that needs a mechanism to convert current injustice to right. he is spending dollars but more than that he has the guts to make a stand

i have to go plan a path for this one because i had not previously accepted copyright to be a scarcity mechanism. ouch that hurts. but it is true

notice how torrentfreak repeats FILESHARING IS PIRACY in all the subsequent blogs to this one. Ernesto, Enigmax, you are wrong. it is easy to replace you when you refuse to be the voice of the filesharer

i will speak the unsaid that everyone has been thinking forever. i wish you luck as the voice of The Pirate Bay. you PIRATES deserve the shared future you deserve

http://www.h33t.com will post no longer on this blog

let it be a contest of systems. let the Pirates who would criminalise Filesharers fail
