Sell music with t-shirts
John Battelle's blog post over music search.
I would like to join, though a bit late, this conversation ... a conversation about copyright; music copyright in particular.
I follow the approach endeavoured by Richard Stallman (you know, the guy who coined the expressions "GNU's not Unix", and "free as in Freedom, not free beer"). I believe that a single GPL license should be given to the whole of the internet - and I really mean the WHOLE of the internet -; in particular to whatever media file (music or video) you find there.
Why? Well, because I think it's the most natural way to go.
You must remember that systems adjust to technology. Imagine musicians of the 18th century. They could not record their music.
