PIRACY IS PROGRESSIVE TAXATION, AND
OTHER THOUGHTS ON THE EVOLUTION OF ONLINE DISTRIBUTION
Publisher Tim O'Reilly brings common sense
and facts to the media copyright debate. He speaks from real
experience and not the blind fear promoted by the entertainment
titans.
O'Reilly lists 6 lessons from his experience
in the publishing business.
- Obscurity is a far greater threat to
authors and creative artists than piracy.
- Piracy is progressive taxation
- Customers want to do the right thing,
if they can.
- Shoplifting is a bigger threat than
piracy.
- File sharing networks don't threaten
book, music, or film publishing. They threaten existing
publishers.
- "Free" is eventually replaced
by a higher-quality paid service
- There's more than one way to do it.
