copywrite, sorry this one is a wee bit late

i found this lecture quite interesting as i never knew that for copywrite to be enforced properly, that the creator had to chase down copywriters that were using there work without permission. i think it makes the whole copywrite thing quite confusing when you refer to downloaded music! the interent these days is far to big to have anything protected, nothing is private, so how is it possible for one person to chase down thousands or millions of people using their idea? i feel this idea also refers to wikipedia where everyday people copy and paste work without looking at copywrite etc. i think creative commons is a great alternative to copywrite, as it allows authors to distinguish how people are able to use their work (which is kind of a compromise), instead of enforcing strict rules.
