      And yet we have whiny idiots saying copyright encourages artists to create new works. Why the fuck would it when they can just rehash the same shit over and over and over and continue making money on them?

      That assumption is based on assuming that profits produce joy and passion in a project. Something which is blatantly false if you look at any of the largest, richest companies in the world.
