Good introductory account to the idea of Creative Commons and especially the idea that sharing content does not mean giving up on any hope of an income. "Inevitably, as more and more digital content is produced by so-called amateurs, sharing will increase no matter how Lessig's book -- or Creative Commons -- fares. As Allan Vilhan puts it, "I make music, and I want people to hear it." Yet if Creative Commons is successful, sharing will become even more pervasive. And a lot more money will be made along the way." Via elearnspace.
