Marks and Marek and the Copyright Thing

Kevin Marks pulls a great quote from the Recovering Marek:

[Jack Valenti's] notion is of a zero-sum copyright, as if there were finite amount of ideas in the world where one has to come up with one and then build a fortress around it so no one else can use it to extend it or derive from it.

And don't forget Kevin's MediAgora, a plan to build a market capable of dealing in digital works of the mind.
