Those who only do creative work to "get paid for it" usually produce inferior work. History shows that when the best and brightest can't make a living at what they do, they get mad. And when they get mad, they start organizing revolts against the rich. Beethoven's music is quintessential rebellion. All he wanted was to be treated with respect, and to have the same opportunities the wealthy had. The truly creative work for the sheer joy of making a difference... money is but a need forced on them by the non-creative.

Gee I wonder how far this will go? The rich think they can keep pushing the poor man, thinking he won't strike back. Let them keep pushing. Before long, their mansions will be burning, and those they relied on for protection... hunted.

Who owns rapid share?

"While laws that protect intellectual property remain strong and enforcement efforts continue, technology has tipped the balance away from the interests of most creators and artists."

Are you kidding me? Almost all the profits for any music or film production goes straight to the studios and companies involved. Hardly any goes to the creators and artists, and only if they've earned the right to recieve a share on that level (James Cameron for instance). This is clearly an attempt from large private organizations to control what rights we internet users have and have not. Get real Hollywood. Maybe if you spent more money on developing talent and products people wanted to pay for, then you wouldn't be having this problem.
