    I'm not completly agains patents. (Trivial ones used to stiffle further innovation excluded). But I wouldnt consider them as "Art" either,in a way movies,music or books are seen as art.

    Regarding your patents, when a competitor is forced to develop another kind of machine to get some work done, there's an increase of competition. Thats usually a good thing. When a patent is granted on doing something at all (Like buying a book with less than three mouseclicks, regardless on where to click) a monopoly is created, and thats usually a bad thing.

    Next question: Is the music market a monopoly? I'd say yes, even though there are several big music companies. But for each artist, a certain company holds the monopoly. And if for some reason I'm a (generic-recent-artist)-fanboy, I cant substitute that music with a cd bought from another company.

    Art should be free (as thought in) its concepts and as in beer for the common good.
