The notion of copyright as a monopolistic economic right governed by exclusive licensing just doesn’t fly any longer. However, creators need to be rewarded for the fruits of the labour. Rather than trying to limit use and exploitation, copyright owners and creators should embrace the opportunities opened up by the internet; monetising all manner of uses rather than simply trying to limit who can use their copyright as they have done for the last 100 years.
