A lot of artists are "forced" to give up their copyright ownership as part of their contract to get the industry to assemble, promote, and distribute their works. So who really benifits? Just look for who's pushing the buttons.

Appeals court affirms Grokster decision Posted Aug 22, 2004 1:39 UTC (Sun) by fLameDogg (guest, #11305) [Link] True enough, but the important thing is for courts to continue to recognize that copyright exists to protect the rights of those for whom it is, by law, automatically established--the creators, not the distributors. That those rights must be bartered away for the creators to achieve certain other goals like certain kinds of success is a different part of the problem.
