Resolved: copyright sucks

OK, the Economist has found a prettier way to say this: “This house believes that existing copyright laws do more harm than good.” Check out their wonderful debate on copyright. I am impressed by the discussion and the way it hooks in reader commentary as well and professional contributions. Very nicely done. It also plays out over the course of a week. This is a very structured system for debate of hot topics, nicely done. At the moment, the resolution is getting overwhelming support. Take a look, learn, vote! (Hat tip to Joho.)
