The cost of intelectual property

Through Slashdot, I learned about an interesting article in this week's New Yorker magazine. It talks about striking the balance between private property in terms of intellectual property, but not lock the economy due to them. You can read the article here.

Did You Say “Intellectual Property”? It's a Seductive Mirage

The cow's pasture's example is still a mirage, when on earth would ALL villagers have cows and not a single artisan, musician, craft maker, market, shops and etc?!

Especially on US where pasture space is abundant... :D
