That has little relevance with maintaining a culture. You missed this point: Copyright laws complicate the economics of production. That has little relevance with maintaining a culture.

“But only rich people get recognized in a world without copyright.”

What a naive statement. It’s obvious you are jealous of rich people, since you are a money freak.

“How does it hanper anyones ability to release content?”

Your last sentence is not even relevant or grammatically correct . There’s a difference between getting the release to sell and actually putting the stuff out in the first place.

Didn't you read?: "Since copyright laws have become so broad in what they protect, ..." You can't even distinguish between plagiarizing an idea and incidentally creating something similar. "Patents don't stifle advancement, they encourage people to share their information and make it into useful inventions, which they do becuase they know they can profit." No, patents prevent anybody else from even using that information, so advancement depends on the patent owner, and thus if the owner doesn't continue the advancement of the idea, then the advancement is stifled. "As for industries developing, there is no industry if there is no product." Except there could be no industry even if there is a product. Industry development does not only involve product lines. "... Pakistan and Brazil have a better local music business than big parts of the US ..." "Better" is a relative term that says nothing about the actual success of the business in those places. It is doubtful that you're not pulling this from that pea-brain of yours. “The business about the scope of what one can create is pretty baseless… how so?”

Since the industries can't develop under that competition with the limited funds that economy can never be built. The same can easily apply to developing nations. They struggle to compete with big budget corporations, copyright laws further limit what they can and can't produce, and also increases the cost of production.

If there had been copyright at the time, the common people who made them up may have been able to make their life better, and their name would still be known. But only rich people get recognized in a world without copyright. "copyright hampers the little guys ability to release content and compete" How does it hanper anyones ability to release content? It's hard to get good promotion and distribution but something that's public domain (no exclusivity) is NOT going to get the investment. You mean folk tales?

"copyright hampers the little guys ability to release content and compete"

How does it hanper anyones ability to release content? It's hard to get good promotion and distribution but something that's public domain (no exclusivity) is NOT going to get the investment.

The business about the scope of what one can create is pretty baseless... how so? In the sense that I can't plagiarize or sample whole songs or movies? So what? I really can't see your point. Patents don't stifle advancement, they encourage people to share their information and make it into useful inventions, which they do becuase they know they can profit. It really is that simple. Patents don't last very long, either. As for industries developing, there is no industry if there is no product. Anyway, both Pakistan and Brazil have a better local music business than big parts of the US, so you're way off base. It's not simple but you're painting an innacurate picture to justify your point.

It covers drug patents, and other intellectual property that would help them advance their organizations. They also support what I've been saying for a while now that copyright hampers the little guys ability to release content and compete. Either way, maybe Disney would like to pay the people they ripped off their stories from, oh wait they became public when the laws made sense, and copyright had a time limit within ones lifetime.
