Copyright

Copyright is a huge issue at the moment and is problematic across all nations. It involves the artists getting payed and has not been a major issue until the internet became mainstream and artists found they're art was being downloaded at will and a lot of times for free.

In the article titled "What do we want copyright to do?" it explains how discussing what we want copyright to do is like discussing how long is a peace of string (meaningless). In order for artists to get payed properly for all theyre work they might have to have the government give them a certain amount of money yearly until they no longer consider themselves an artist. Nations across the world are discussing ways of shaping the new copyright laws for the 21st century and it seems that it is never easy.
