Excellent lecture. Mr. Lessing is on the point. We must sepparate what is different in this new context and at the same time protect the creators and their work and effort.
If we don't, we may, as he says first, get only crap, or lost the economic incentive that artist and creators have.
I have been waiting for some one to write about this exact thing. Thanks for putting up this video! I saw the author on the Colbert Report and immediately googled him. I am all for a multidisciplinary approach towards looking at how culture and media coevolve, and am probably to the left of Lessig in my dislike of the copyright laws. In fact, I think that knowledge and information of all kinds must be made free. But the major players in the economy have huge stakes in information control.

It is a flawed society that causes art to be created within a financial means...
