[Web4lib] Consumer Group Raises Concerns about Google PrintLibrary

[Thomas Edelblute]

Of course, we all know that artists will continue to create new works
without intellectual property law. Artists have created works for
centuries without IP laws existing. And IP laws actually INTERFERE with
the creative process. As I stated in a previous email, art and music
rely heavily on borrowing. The current regime of IP law interferes with
the free flow of ideas, which isn't just harmful to artists but to our
culture.

If people continue to create regardless of IP law, how do the current IP
laws INTERFERE with the creative process?
