Week 9

For my essay I have chosen question 5.

"Is there a conflict between notions of copyright and free speech? How is new communication technology impacting on both those ideas and what are the effects in terms of profits and costs and the quality of democratic debate."

I've gone with this question because besides the fact that I think (hoping I'm right) it's actually interesting...and as I previously mentioned I covered some Copyright back in Year 12 so it should help me get a grasp on things.

Im basically going to begin with what the difference between copyright and free speech and what they mean. Then I'll focus on how each of them relate to particular people (the public, business etc.) and effectively how that affects us...thats where I think I'm headed anyway
