dc.description.abstract | The fate of professional creators is a major cultural issue. While specific
copyright rules are obviously contingent and should be adapted to the new realities
of online distribution and easy reuse, professional authorship remains necessary. I
also believe that to be a professional author, creators need time, which, in turn, does
require some form of payment. We need healthy financial flows to allow
professional authors to make a decent, market-based living. This requires a move away from one-size-fits-all copyright and the resulting "tug of norms" that requires a shift of the entire policy package to the benefit of one category of authors and/or users to the detriment of all others. | en_US |
