Re: [Trisquel-users] Best way to present Trisquel to people

[magicbanana]

One of the pillar of a society is its members are sharing culture. Anyone  
should have the right to share its culture. DRMs deny this right, thus are  
ethically wrong. Using a software that denies the users freedom (the Adobe  
Flash player is even known for spying its users!) is ethically wrong too.

The pay-per-view or pay-per-copy model of the "content industry" does not  
make any economical sense when making a copy or having one more spectator  
does not cost anything. Streaming art or sport games is a useful activity and  
it would not die if it started to be done in an ethical way. If there really  
is no money to be made ethically from the spectators, I am sure the people  
organizing the stadiums (with advertisement around the field, and sits to  
fill) or the teams (selling merchandising, shirts for instance) would pay to  
be streamed! Actually they might even make more money in this way since the  
audience would be greater. Music/Video streaming websites have advertisement  
too. If people prefer to directly exchange their files (e.g., over P2P), then  
this business would die and that is OK. It simply means it became useless!
