Media Futurist Gerd Leonhard talks about the Future of Copyright: 1) An actual distinction between ‘Copy’ vs ‘Performance’ of digital content no longer exists 2) Even if it did: the ‘Selling of Copies’ is no longer a growing business, or a sustainable model 3) The exclusive right to ‘make copies’ is becoming impossible to enforce 3) Criminalization of Sharing and Policing of Web-Access is not the kind of ‘Justice’ our society can afford 4)New Permissions & ‘Usage-Rights’ for Digital Music can and will solve this problem

  • Interesting thoughts. One thought I've had is that internet providers should be responsible in contributing to a blanket license.

    They've been supplying the means for people to illegally download music for years.

  • Gerd,

    This makes sense but, how will the creators and rights holders get paid? There is no mention of that here. Once these new revenues are collected, what mechanisms will be in place to make sure that the creators are fairly compensated?
