[quote=Anonymous][quote]You do know the economic reason we have copyright, don't you? If all of the content is free and posted online, then that's it. No one will make new updated content, because they won't have the time to do that for free. You can call the price of textbooks (paper and subscription online) profiteering, and say it's too high. But free is too low.[/quote] Khan Academy is free. Lots of stuff is out there for free. People do have the time to do it and they want to do it. Free is not too low. There is some great stuff that is free because there are great people who enjoy doing this stuff. Open source is where we should be going. [/quote]
