I hadn't really thought too much about copies, ownership and copyright before taking this class. Copyright is an interesting subject. When I think of it in terms of work that I've produced, or people I'm close to, it would really piss me off to have someone reproduce it, especially if they were making a profit on it. My daughter is an artist. She posts her creations on her business Facebook page. Recently she found out that one of her Facebook friends was copying her work and selling at lower prices. Needless to say, she was furious! She immediately "de-friended" the person. I can't think of anything I've produced that someone would want to copy, but I know the feeling of working hard on a project, and I'm pretty sure that I'd feel the same way if in the same situation. On the flip side, I've tried to imagine a world without reproductions or copies. I cant, it's impossible. And honestly, I think it'd be pretty boring.
