Now thats an intersting article by Ernest Adams about the End of Copyright. Starting with Gutenberg he gives a rough introduction how copyright came into existance. The interesting part begins after this introduction. When the first photocpiers were introduced people started using them to copy parts of books for their own personal use. This was at first frowned at but later a fair-use law was introduced due to the massive amount of people who used the photocopiers.
