The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

    It just seems that what you are saying is that people shouldn’t be paid if their work doesn’t create something physical.

      Nope, that’s not what I’m saying. I just make a difference between copying, stealing, physical goods, digital goods and immaterial things. They are not the same.

      Easy examples: original and copy does not really apply to digital works or two people on opposite sides of world can have the same thought but not have the same physical object at the same time, etc.

        Please name for me something someone could create on a computer, that you would agree they should be paid for; even if they show a demonstration copy to someone.
