With new medicine there's a ten year period of grace before generics kick in.

That'd be the closest our stances might come. Yes, the originator of piece should be acknowledged, yet the legal framework should ensure new artists are encouraged as well as protecting temporarily the fiscal outcomes of a artist producing something outstanding. We don't have the interesting movements in art like at the start of the 20th C. and part of that is the law protecting established artists over new and up'n'coming ones, or even outsider artists who sometimes might be more interesting than trained ones.
Most artists don't earn any money. Like I wrote, Filonov never sold anything and died of hunger.

A few make it big and the remainder make pennies. That's true everywhere. Sometimes it seems dishonesty is the only way to make a honest living if you are a creative in this world. I keep intending to take up photography yet high end equipment is out of my reach. I don't know. :read:

I think also making money with music is next to impossible, people have to pay money to make music nowadays.

You shouldn't do things for money, as the saying goes, only for love, but at least the bills should be covered by what you do best.

If I had a wealthy patron then my equipment and hence the quality of my output would improve. A virtuous circle. There are many talented amateurs in the arts who never make it. It's a lottery, time and chance. And for the untalented with the correct paperwork there is always advertising.

You can just as well argue what this whole fuss about royal babies is about when millions of women around the world are going through the laboriousness of producing babies and isn't a baby a baby?! Some have privileges and privilege is by definition not earned or deserved.

I remember where I was when I heard the original. This version had the same impact on my oldest child. It's pretty damn good, if I might say so. :tup:
