Re: Copyright Thieves Beware
Alternatively, let's be adults and accept the mantra of the KLF (Kopyright Liberation Front), ACO (Anti-Copyright Organisation), etc... as a TV producer/scriptwriter I've had tonnes of my shit reproduced on the internet but I don't give a fuck - as long as I got paid originally (just the once) frankly anyone can use it. Hopefully photographers (who as an occupation are famously petty-minded) and others will join suit. Everything should be public domain the moment it is first published (and therefore paid for). Come on guys, let's grow up and give something back to society...

Re: Copyright Thieves Beware
Sorry, but all I can say is you're talking bollocks.
As a TV dcriptwriter or whatever, you are probably paid a fee for the job and copyright probably passes to those who bought it (BBC or whoever).
A photographer of tits and bums cannot expect to recoup the entire cost of a session with a single sale. I get a few hundred dollars selling a set to a US magazine. This represents only part of the cost. The balance, plus profit depends on subsequent sales.
