Re: I'm already in range
@ST7 Can you point me to any evidence that patents/copyright promotes invention/artistic achievement rather than stifling it.
Prior to the introduction of copyright in the 18th century, artists such as Hogarth suffered serious diminution of earnings because their engravings were pirated almost as oon as they were published. This at a time when the copying process was far more labour-intensive than it is today.
