Commons, copyright, royalties

Thanks to Doc Searls (see his An Adult's Garden of Clues), two sides to the intellectual property debate:

Larry Lessig's Creative Commons website.

And Charles Cooper's response: Why Larry Lessig gets an "F" in software.

Hmmm...that tiny royalty check I get from BMI is just about due. Not much, but a few bucks whenever my 4 TV scores play on air or cable, 7 years after composing them. Is that unfair? Who knows. Will I pay BMI a few dollars to keep track, collect and pay me? You bet.
