Cultural embarrassment

[matrixmann]

The next episode in the category "youth is as fucked up and has as much bad taste as the previous generation":

When the eldest school kids, about 14 to 16 years old, of a nearby 10-classes-school meet in their niche before the building, start to entertain the whole surrounding area with their music and among it you recognize some kind of newer, 2015-updated-like version of Eiffel 65's "Blue".

Hm, then that was the song where you - when you first listened to one of them and then to the other, where you found pretty much of a bunch of similarities in the sound.
I don't have it in my ear right now, I can't remember, but I think I remember that's what came out of it as this issue was in current discussion.

In my view, the whole copyright system needs a total rework. As you have it with patents as well as cultural goods - if someone is interested making money with it by distributing it, as a maker you always sell your copyright to that company. You don't have any say in that then anymore what is done with it and you are - at most in cultural products - the one who least makes profit of it.
The most of it the media corporations make, even though they often enough didn't contribute anything that the work exists at all.
That's the same principle by which a pimp earns with his whores.
