Boynton's "The Tyranny of Copyright?"

While searching on Google for a few times, I found pretty much the same articles that everyone else came across. After skimming through the arguments of both sides, I did get a better picture of the situation. The Internet’s somewhat fair representation of the cases indicates that public domain and the freedom of speech still exists. And despite regulations that might seem absurd to some, social and cultural progress is still taking place. I think Boynton was trying to subtly point out that by having groups like “Copy Left” and discussions like this, both sides can compromise and continue coming up with better solutions.

I don't think either side of the copyright fight have a perfect solution to the problem of having either more restrictive and longer copyrights or to have very limited and shorter term ones. It is good that both sides of the debate is being empowered so that when they clash, they will come up with a solution that in the middle ground of the two extremes.
