Does anyone have a link to this cartoon video? It was posted here a little bit ago and I thought it did a great job of explaining how downloading music is not "stealing."

Sorry, just found it!

Personally, I think this version is much better.

It's so simple. How can people still not get this?

I'm forwarding this to all my pro-IP friends.

It doesn't address the "Without the profit incentive, people won't create" thing people always refer to.

What a wonderful little video.

It seizes the moral high ground. It puts the IP crowd into the same camp as the slavery crowd, "nothing would get done without slavery."

I am in love with this one:

If I wrote it more than a few weeks ago, I probably hate it by now.

What the Hell... Surprise

They should have a bit about majors being entrenched in a hopeless position and fighting what is a losing battle.

This video has been stuck in my head ever since this post started.  It's simply brilliant.  A minute long, and could potentially transform how someone thinks about copying, and how costly IP laws are.  I've sent it to everyone I know, even people who don't like to talk politics with me.

The Willbe version Nielsio posted is clearly the best.
