Death to âPiracyâ: Should All Music Sharing Be Free? [VIDEO]
,----[ Quote ]
| Free software activist Richard Stallman
| certainly wouldnât say so. Stallman started
| the Free Software Foundation based on four
| principles.
|
| 1. Information, such as computer software,
| should be freely accessible.
| 2. The information should be free to
| modify.
| 3. The information should be free to share
| with others.
| 4. The information should be free to
| change and redistribute copies of the
| changed software.
|
| While not all of these principles apply to
| music, he says, some of them should apply.
| And a lot of music fans and musicians tend to
| agree with him. In many ways, the corporate
| side of the music industryâs attitude toward
| musical content mimics Microsoftâs or Adobeâs
| or Appleâs attitude toward software. This
| attitude often does nothing to help those who
| create or those who enjoy the content in
| question; it does everything to make money
| for the corporations who oversee licensing
| and purchase fees.

| Many of you surely know the Android operating
| system developed by Google. Maybe not everybody
| know itâs not fully free software.
|
| This is why activists from LibrePlanet Italia
| and Software Freedom Law Center created a fully
| free software Android alternative called
| Replicant.
