People are taking artist’s music and illegally distributing it!! That’s right, folks: people have been copying sheet music for hundreds of years!
Piracy : The Intellectual Property Wars from Gutenberg to Gates is actually a pretty awesome account of how sneak-thievery of intellectual property wasn’t born with Napster or other filesharing sites. This is a neat book for people interested in copyright and IP law, the tensions between creators and imitators, and what has been done to detour this for the last few hundreds of years. A pretty interesting thing to think about, no?
Excellent addition to the collection!
