If there was every any doubt that copyright laws need to change, look no further than anything Lessig’s written on the subject (especially this book).
[I read the first 31 pages, but then decided to listen to the audiobook.]

Wow. This guy can argue! Lessig makes a strong case – not against copyright or the idea of intellectual property – but against the extreme forms of legislation that hinder such property ever entering the public domain. Drawing on historical precedents, he shows that the idea of perpetual copyright, which is slowly becoming the norm today, is an anathema to ideas about property when it was first codified in the 18th century.

Good book. I’ve read it and now “re-read” it by listening to the audiobook (http://free-culture.cc/remixes/). Highly recommended!
I downloaded the .pdf version and decided I had to purchase the book to finish reading it.
