Milaspage Reminds me of that South Park episode that I didn’t like. In general I like South Park but this one was kind of disgusting. They were making fun of Steve Jobs as well which was unfortunate especially given the timing of the episode. But it had to do with punishment for not reading the “user agreement”.

Interesting research, Mila. I can bet that most of us do not read the fine print of user agreements. I will be intrigued with the outcome of the Bruce Willis rights to his music collection. I would have made the same assumption. Ownership should be transferable as long as it isn’t duplicated.I did not know that Facebook would turn your page into a Memorial site, but I’m still coming to grips with that particular digital property outliving me…

DIS4Business Thank you for commenting Doina I think it was a good story to shed some light on the fact that we really don’t pay that much attention to what we download anymore. We have become numb to these user agreements, and overall just think because it’s what everyone is doing , it makes sense. A few months ago I bought a few books on paper because i wanted to authors to be able to sign something. I already had them on digital. I remember thinking, this is crazy, why would we keep buying paper other than to have the authors signatures… well, the idea that I might not own what I buy, but may only be leasing it is a little disturbing, especially when you start to amass collections. It was a good article to trigger a lot of different thoughts. Im glad you found it useful too

This is really good information Mila. I never thought of it but it sure is worth looking into now. Thank you for this!
