Information is not free. Energy is invested to create new
information, it follows that information like energy can be bought
and sold. You would offend a lot of authors by telling them, their
work has no value and should be duplicated without compensation.
Unless authors and other creators of information receive
substantial once off payement for their work, after which it can be
copied.

It is a problem to enforce the copyright laws, but that doesn`t
automatically mean that they should be abolished.
